I think this is basically right. No discussion of trade offs or complicating factors can ever be allowed. Funny that these kinds of thought patterns are exactly what I was taught to overcome during my years of scientific training…

On the internet one would be forgiven for thinking that nobody can handle nuance anymore. Except I think most normal people who aren’t crusaders are actually rather nuanced in their daily lives. Hence why global warming is always 20/20 on the list of voters most urgent issues I guess.

Well, I learned something new today. I've been vaguely following climate news for most of a decade and this is the first I've heard about aerosol masking.

Not sure if you find that encouraging because you just educated someone or discouraging because you would have hoped that news would have gotten out more already, but at least you've earned a reader interested in whatever you post next.
