   Fossil fuels are planet-coolers.   
      
   For starters they darken the sky -- particle pollution or   
   "Particulates."  This is also known as "Air Pollution." Worse   
   than darkening the sky is sulfur.   
      
   Sulfur in the atmosphere becomes an aerosol that bounces the   
   sun's energy back out into space, so less of it even reaches   
   us. The worst offender would be coal. Yes coal is the biggest   
   planet cooler. It's the dirtiest -- darkens the sky the   
   most -- and contains the most sulfur. China burns more coal   
   than the rest of the planet, btw. Everyone keeps pretending   
   that China is playing along with the Gwobull Warbling fantasy,   
   but they're not. They are HEAVILY reliant on coal, as is   
   India.   
      
   India hasn't even come into it's own yet. When they do, they   
   are likely to surpass China in coal burning...
