James Hansen confirms the McFearSun Paradox of Aerosol Masking Effect

 

We need to rethink everything we know about global warming
New calculations show scientists have grossly underestimated the effects of air pollution https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190122104611.htm
 With this new method, Rosenfeld and his colleagues were able to more accurately calculate aerosols' cooling effects on the Earth's energy budget. And, they discovered that aerosols' cooling effect is nearly twice higher than previously thought.
By my calculations a 40% decrease in sulfur pollution will warm Earth another 1 degree Celsius global average.
It follows that the global warming acceleration is due to the one huge climate forcing that we have chosen not to measure: the forcing caused by imposed changes of atmospheric aerosols.

However, new research published in Science by Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Daniel Rosenfeld shows that the degree to which aerosols cool the earth has been grossly underestimated, necessitating a recalculation of climate change models to more accurately predict the pace of global warming.
