    You have your causality running backwards… this was already here, and the sulfur was masking it.

    Which is what I said?

      It was probably framing it like

      Fun fact: All this probably happened because we stopped to geoengineer by outlawing ships blowing sulphur into the air which created additional cloud cover.

      Instead of something like “we noticed the effects of climate change exceptionally this year because we stopped blowing sulphur (…)”. Yes, this is probably pedantic in a room where everyone understands anthropocentric climate change. Still, I can understand why some people might want to be extremely clear with how we use language regarding this topic, given… Everything that’s going on.

      Lemmy is acting weird so I can’t go back and quote, but no, you phrased your attribution in reverse at least once.
