Black Carbon Soot’s Climate Warming Effect May Be Canceled by Its Increasing Cloud Production
Image credit: GenBug (Creative Commons) With all the evidence of human-induced global warming , you’d think it would be good news that some of our activities, like releasing aerosols for example, are also helping to cool the atmosphere. Unfortunately, often the opposite is true. This is starkly illustrated by a new study showing the regional cooling effects of mass irri… Read the full story on TreeHugger
