[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3515944, member: 5412"] HAHAHA!!!! The fawking warmers keep stepping on their own toes! The pandemic has caused the sky to be more clear with less pollution and that is accelerating global warming! We need more pollution to stop warming. :hypnotize: Earth spiked a bit of a fever in 2020, partly because of cleaner air from the pandemic lockdown, a new study found. For a short time, temperatures in some places in the eastern United States, Russia and China were as much as half to two-thirds of a degree (.3 to .37 degrees Celsius) warmer. That’s due to less soot and sulfate particles from car exhaust and burning coal, which normally cool the atmosphere temporarily by reflecting the sun’s heat, Tuesday’s study in the journal [URL='https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2020GL091805']Geophysical Research Letters [/URL]reported. Overall, the planet was about .05 degrees (.03 degrees Celsius) warmer for the year because the air had fewer cooling aerosols, which unlike carbon dioxide is pollution you can see, the study found. “Cleaning up the air can actually warm the planet because that (soot and sulfate) pollution results in cooling” which climate scientists have long known, said study lead author Andrew Gettelman, an atmospheric scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. His calculations come from comparing 2020 weather to computer models that simulated a 2020 without the pollution reductions from pandemic lockdowns.
