Just found this article on yahoo that sounds so full of fear and yet tests are inconclusive. lol

WASHINGTON – The skies are dimming, for most of the world. Increases in airborne pollution have dimmed the skies by blocking sunlight over the past 30 years, researchers report in Friday's edition of the journal Science.

While decreases in atmospheric visibility — known as global dimming — have been reported in the past, the new study compiles satellite and land-based data for a longer period than had been available.

"Creation of this database is a big step forward for researching long-term changes in air pollution and correlating these with climate change," Kaicun Wang, assistant research scientist in the University of Maryland, said in a statement. "And it is the first time we have gotten global long-term aerosol information over land to go with information already available on aerosol measurements over the world's oceans."

They reported that dimming is occurring everywhere except Europe, where declines in pollution have resulted in brighter skies.

"China has skyrocketing POPULATION GROWTH" was news

yesterday! My husband pointed out "How can that be true with China's well known "one child" policy?!" China is not a country that would be flooded with illegal immigrants to explode the population!

Great! A new career opportunity in science world

Yes, now it can be for the regular dimwit too! lol

We wouldn’t qualify.

One must attend the Gore Weirding Out Station (graduate school) for around seven years I think.

That is an interesting

That is an interesting article because it basically says that researchers have thought about putting the very same particulate matter into the skies that just so happen to now be there...but to throw people off the trail they open up with the idea that it's "pollution" which it is, but when people think pollution they think giant smoke stacks and cars.

Dimming should bring cooling

There is no way in HELL that dimming brings warming. The sun is the single biggest factor in the temperature of the planet, even the slightest dimming should bring cooling or an ice age. I've had it with this junk science and globalist fraud, I've had it with the double speak.

The problem may no longer be

The problem may no longer be junk science, but junk learning. Drawing logical conclusions that are nonsense and jumping to conclusions based on weak data seem to be de rigeur in the Internet Age. George Canning (British Prime Minister) once said, "I can prove anything by statistics except the truth”. Never before has such a statement been more true.

The new enlightened set doesn’t stoop to using sense.

It's the Chemtrails

that are causing it.
Yes, it's man-made, but not who they think it is.

The only dimming

are their brain cells. How do they come up with this stuff. I think they should become the new writers for Saturday Night Live because they could use the comic inspiration.

I have been taking pictures of the skies for a couple of days

after weeks and weeks of constant spraying...
Today started off with the bluest of skies... by 12 pm the trails were spreading and spreading and there was no clear sky left, that happens non stop, day after day.

It seems to me that once again they want US to feel guilty about polluting, never mind that it is the spraying that they do, on a grand scale. Global dimming... good grief, what is next..
all they are doing is preparing us for the tax they want to impose and it won't be long or even breathing is not free anymore.

Skies are dimming?

Scientists no doubt just need to adjust their picture settings again.

Pollutants cause global cooling

no,global warming,maybe both
at the same time!!Sheesh!

Only Al Gore knows for sure.

I've been spelling it wrong all this time --

I thought it was "Owl" Gore.
