Although the threats these microplastics pose to natural ecosystems are now being studied extensively, their influence on Earth’s climate is still virtually unknown. Climate scientists know that aerosols like dust, pollen, and soot will alter temperatures on Earth’s surface as they scatter and absorb sunlight. Altitude matters.

The most important problem with the sun-climate explanation is that there has been no long-term change in either solar activity or cosmic radiation over the last hundred years that can explain the global warming we are now seeing. It feels like we start from scratch again because of inexperienced and lazy newcomers.

Communities from Texas to Ohio that are benefiting from this scientifically informed tourism boom are the same places where some people like to question and mock climate scientists. As NASA points out on X , the temperature drop gives “a firsthand sense that the sun is a major part of Earth’s climate system.

In this, he is in violent agreement with Isaac Held, his colleague at GFDL, and indeed most climate scientists. He makes a eloquent argument for a hierarchy of modeling where simpler, functional, models can contribute a lot to understanding in advance of the more complete and more detailed versions turning up.

For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface. The danger is that the Antarctic sea ice is starting to behave like the Arctic, with sustained loss of ocean cover and consequent absorption of solar radiation.

Altering cloud properties influences Earth’s climate On sunny days, it’s clear that clouds leave shadows on the landscape. Climate scientists are interested in clouds for exactly this reason- clouds reflect sunlight, which has a cooling effect on surface temperatures. Cirrus clouds formed this way have many, small ice crystals.

Debate has been particularly sharp over proposed small field-research experiments – experiments that would inject small amounts of materials into the atmosphere to observe local chemical, radiative, and climate responses. Opponents of SG research have advanced a wide range of claims, of which two are credible and serious.
