NASA Finds That Burning Fossil Fuels Causes Cooling

If there is one thing the government-paid “experts” know about the supposed human effect on the climate, it is that they don’t know much of anything. Now they say that burning fossil fuels cools the planet:

Burning fossil fuels and cutting down trees causes global COOLING, a shock new NASA study has found.

Major theories about what causes temperatures to rise have been thrown into doubt after NASA found the Earth has cooled in areas of heavy industrialisation where more trees have been lost and more fossil fuel burning takes place.

Environmentalists have long argued the burning of fossil fuels in power stations and for other uses is responsible for global warming and predicted temperature increases because of the high levels of carbon dioxide produced – which causes the global greenhouse effect.

While the findings did not dispute the effects of carbon dioxide on global warming, they found aerosols – also given off by burning fossil fuels – actually cool the local environment, at least temporarily.

Like aerosols, deforestation is said to cause cooling by resulting in more sunlight being reflected back into space.

Maybe they are planning to use this new discovery to explain why global warming hasn’t resulted in it getting any warmer for the past 2 decades. Or maybe they have figured out that they had it right the first time, when they were screaming at us back in the 1970s than draconian measures had to be taken because of global cooling, which would be a much more serious problem than global warming. Then again, given the lunacy that characterizes the global warming hoax, maybe the government will seize on the cooling as evidence that it will get even hotter:

NASA has concluded the lack of taking these factors [i.e., cooling allegedly due to aerosols, deforestation] into account means existing climate change models have underestimated [what] the future impact on global temperatures will be.

One thing is for sure. We are all doomed if we don’t sacrifice our wealth and freedom and let the experts do what’s best for us.
