Particulate pollution over industrialized regions can at least temporarily mask the global warming signal by reflecting heat back into the outer layers of the atmosphere, according to Harvard researchers, who say that they’ve pinpointed a “warming hole” over the eastern United States.
“What we’ve shown is that particulate pollution over the eastern United States has delayed the warming that we would expect to see from increasing greenhouse gases,” said lead author Eric Leibensperger, who completed the study as a graduate student in applied physics at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.

So desperate to stick to the program they’ll say anything. How about the since the warming you’d expect to see from greenhouse gasses isn’t there maybe the theory is wrong?
I do hope that no private money was wasted on this research when there is so taxpayer dollars sloshing about for this sort of thing.
Pollution is running against the wind.
These researchers really need to “Research” weather patterns over the US.
Story is that id Yellowstone Caldera was to blow the particulate matter would blow East and south because of the weather patterns.
