oh screw it. This is hilarious.

Our planet's air has cleared up in the past decade or two, allowing more sunshine to reach the ground, say two studies in Science this week.

Reductions in industrial emissions in many countries, along with the use of particulate filters for car exhausts and smoke stacks, seem to have reduced the amount of dirt in the atmosphere and made the sky more transparent.

That sounds like very good news. But the researchers say that more solar energy arriving on the ground will also make the surface warmer, and this may add to the problems of global warming. More sunlight will also have knock-on effects on cloud cover, winds, rainfall and air temperature that are difficult to predict.

The passengers and crew may be in the same predicament,
but the pilot always arrives first at the crash site.
 
Those guy obviously have never been to Mexico City, the whole time it feels like haze, with a visibility of about 1km, even on a sunny day.

*beep* "Folks, this is your captain speaking....Yeah, we're going down, smoke em if ya got em. Got a pack up here, meet ya on the ground."
 
I heard an interesting conclusion being drawn from this yesterday...for the first time in history, mankinds actions have directly affected the global warming phenomena. Our actions have thinned the natural filtration of the planet, in the name of progress & ecology & still we're in the wrong.
 
Interesting link, Gato. I still believe that this is all part of the cyclical climate change tha'ts been going on for millions of years. A ten, twenty or even fifty year sample is virtually meaningless.
 
Theres already all kinds of hardcore proof of cyclical changes being ignored.
