Good news!  Great news!  Polution controls are working!  The world is saved and we dont have to worry about rising oceans and global warming!

The birds are singing, the bees are buzzing, and Al gore is happy as a pig in poop!

According to the Magazine:

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.

So everything is coming up roses, right?

Wrong:

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.

Difficult to predict?  Hardly!  We have had the eco whackos doing that since the Ice age of the 70s passed!

What?  You say that there was no ice age in the 70s?  There had to be!  The eco whackos said we were headed for an ice age in the 70s, and they would not lie to us now would they?

But the best part of the article, and the one that the non-chicken Little among us have been stating through the Ice age and then Global warming is:

Uncertainties remain part of the game because scientists have only a limited ability to track cloud cover and particulates, says Macke. Increased cooperation in programmes such as the NASA-led International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project should help to close the gaps in our knowledge of how dirty air affects climate, he says.

Uncertainties remain!  That sounds like someone just said "we dont know".  WOW!  Finally an admission of knowledge!  We dont know!

There is hope for these people yet.  FOr it is the wise man that knows that he knows not!
