newtboysays...*doublepromote someone else finally noticing global dimming as a significant factor in global warming.
Global dimming from excess sulfur dioxide may be responsible for cutting the current excess anthropogenic heat in the system by between 15% to 50% depending on the study.
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/13/what-is-solar-geoengineering-sunlight-reflection-risks-and-benefits.html
What this means is, if we stop polluting tomorrow, the CO2 and other greenhouse gases will continue to warm us at the same rate for decades to centuries, but the sulfur dioxide that has blocked between .25 to 2 degrees Celsius temperature rise will be gone almost immediately, and a significant sudden rise in temp will be the result kicking off or feeding more feedback loops.
While it may seem he’s onto some global warming solution…just put more sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere…that ignores the lower growth rates and lost solar production it causes by deflecting a significant percentage of sunlight, both adding to net CO2 added to the system.
The incredibly scary part is the whitehouse and other international governments are actively researching ways to inject sulfur dioxide into the upper atmosphere despite knowing it has so many issues.
There’s no easy fix.
siftbotsays...Double-Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Sunday, August 6th, 2023 5:11pm PDT - doublepromote requested by newtboy.
BSRsays...My solution would be to make giant sunglasses for the earth. The only drawback is how do I make giant ears and a nose to hold them in place? I'm so f'ing close.

newtboysays...Magnets….the answer is always magnets.
But in addition to the sunglasses, might I suggest a sweatband?

BSRsays...Well that sounds attractive

newtboyjokingly says...Depends, 1/2 the time it’s actually repulsive.
Well that sounds attractive
