GLOBAL DIMMING
The Solution to Facing Global Issues Without Disturbing the Balance
Barbara Viehmeyer
THE ARGUMENT
• Do we use global dimming to the
advantage of saving the earth or try to
reduce it, along with global warming?
WHAT IS GLOBAL DIMMING?
• Reduction of solar radiation (heat) reaching the earth and staying within the
atmosphere.
• Thick, reflective clouds traced from chemtrails
• pollutants
• Sulfur dioxide, soot and ash, also with carbon dioxide
• The chemtrails in the atmosphere viewed from satellite over the Atlantic.
SIMPLE DIAGRAM OF GLOBAL DIMMING
ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY
•
During the 9/11 attack, all commercial flights were grounded for the next 3 days.
•
The graph below is the data that was found during those 3 days.
IMPORTANCE OF GLOBAL DIMMING
• The impacts would be dire to humans and to the earth.
• Increase the effects of global warming
• Irreversible damage would be only about 30 years away from year 2009
EFFECTS OF DESTROYING GLOBAL DIMMING
• No more blanket to deflect some of the effects from global warming
• Rapid warming
• Less oxygen
• Reaction from methane hydrate
• Eight times stronger carbon dioxide
• Anup stated, “This is not a prediction, it is a warning of cause and effect
when we clean up the pollution without the greenhouse gases”.
