--That global dimming stuff is just adding another layer of complexity to the whole system, isn't it?

Yes, because now it turns out that if we cut down on air pollution (particles), as we are currently doing (we've cleaned up a lot in the past years on this apparently), it makes the CO2 emissions really get down to business... so instead of a temp. rise of 5º in 50 years, it would be 10º (or more)... that's really bad news.

I'd like hydrogen-fueled cars, once they make it workable, it looks like a very viable solution, and very clean, since the waste product is water.
