As usual, the science does NOT seem settled, but the news is always bad. //

Tropospheric aerosol radiative forcing has persisted for many years as one of the major causes of uncertainty in global climate model simulations. To sample the range of plausible aerosol and atmospheric states and perform robust statistical analyses of the radiative forcing, it is important to account for the combined effects of many sources of model uncertainty. //

To explain what is being said here, the ‘’Tropospheric aerosol radiative forcing’’ is an overly complex way of saying that the greenhouse gasses currently in the atmosphere are actually reflecting sunlight and are contributing to reducing the harmful heating effect.

You have to be at least a little bit surprised to read this. They repeatedly mention ‘’uncertainty’’ in the climate modeling, despite the constant barrage of talk we are served that the science is settled, and we have to move forward to radical solutions. Yet, here we are told models are completely uncertain, and that they may have discovered that the reflective effects by aerosols are actually beneficial. //

We need to clean our emissions because it causes warming, and doing so will clear away aerosols which protect us from warming. As usual, no matter what takes place environmentally, we are in a no-win scenario — but we are fully to blame, of course. I cover this type of contradictory data-point summation in my annual Earth Day piece, where I collected numerous modeling and predictions that were contradicting themselves. //

Pollution is causing warming, and removing pollution is causing warming. For once I believe that I can use the phrase ”I can’t even…’’, because I am dismayed as to what the solution can possibly be for this unsettled scientific conclusion. //

”We must act’’, all the while being completely unable to formulate a cogent solution to the problem. I now understand better than ever why politicians love the climate hysteria so much.
