Exhausts hiding global warming

The video discusses how sulfate particles from ships attract water molecules, forming cloud droplets that reflect solar radiation, thus cooling the Earth. Researchers analyzed satellite data from Atlantic shipping lanes (2003-2015) to assess the impact of emissions. They found that without these particles, the Earth might have already warmed by 1.5°C, a change with significant societal impacts as noted by the IPCC. The University of Washington highlights the importance of these particles in mitigating global warming.
