India especially is experiencing many more deaths from air quality than from warming

[flagged]

  • Besides the well-documented increases in PM2.5 concentrations at ground level we already have clear research on we'd also face

    - ozone layer depletion

    - reduced precipitation in an area already drought-stricken. As well as other difficult to predict effects on local climate and weather

    - alteration of many stratospheric chemical cycles. We're talking changes to nitrogen oxide chemistry and even impacts on hydroxyl radicals which drive atmospheric cleansing capacity

    - increased risk of acid rain from sulfuric acid

    Like I said. The research is not there. There are many many side effects we haven't worked out yet.

    And spare me the personal attacks about dishonesty, jackass
