Discovery that Agricultural Practices Help Form Clouds Implies ‘The Climate May Be More Sensitive Than Previously Thought’

New research from the CERN laboratory in Switzerland suggests that the climate’s sensitivity to carbon dioxide may be higher than expected.

A team of scientists led by a British academic has solved a long-standing enigma to explain how up to half the clouds in the sky are formed.  And in finally cracking the problem of how planet-cooling clouds are conjured from what might seem to be thin air, the researchers found that humans play a significant role.  It is a discovery that could fundamentally change our understanding of climate change, and may even mean experts have underestimated just how warm the planet will get over the next century.
