Hmmm. Let me get this straight. In spite of man's massive efforts to pollute the skies, it's volcanoes that are really causing the problem? And perhaps changes in the sun? How can that be? That appears to be against everything the Globull Warming crowd is pitching to us.
(Reuters) - Small volcanic eruptions help explain a hiatus in global warming this century by dimming sunlight and offsetting a rise in emissions of heat-trapping gases to record highs, a study showed on Sunday.
Eruptions of at least 17 volcanoes since 2000, including Nabro in Eritrea, Kasatochi in Alaska and Merapi in Indonesia, ejected sulfur whose sun-blocking effect had been largely ignored until now by climate scientists, it said.
