For quite sometime, we have been hearing news about various countries trying to tackle the problem of Global Warming. But a new problem has been evolved, and it is called as Global dimmming.
There are 2 effects of burning fossil fuels and they are,
. Green house gases causing Global Warming
. Pollutants that cause Global Dimming
These pollutants change the properties of clouds. What happens is that these pollutants make theclouds to act as reflectors which inturn reflects the sun's light. Hence the reduction of heat reaching the earth is called as Global Dimming.
Effects of Global Dimming :
Irregular Monsoons, acid rains, health problems, loss of vegetations, increase in earth's temperature etc. This might also change the rainfall patterns. Hence this problem must also be immediately addressed.
