    The research could offer a warning about efforts in ‘solar geoengineering’ - plans to deliberately reflect heat back into space using aerosols.

    Such approaches - including the idea of spraying aerosols into the air from a fleet of planes - have been debated by academic institutions around the world.

    Speaking to Science.org, Maria Rugenstein, a Colorado State University said that the research shows the climate can respond rapidly, and with unexpected repercussions. She said: “I would take this as a cautionary tale.”

    they literally just broke up the paragraphs

    I can’t believe then when you cut the context out of the yahoo article it no longer has context shocked-pikachu

      They very clearly broke it up in a way that disconnects the two statements removing context from the quote from the scientist, but do go on.

        Reductions in emissions of aerosols from Chinese factories may be partly to blame for recent heatwaves in the Pacific, a new study has said.

        The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, suggests that repeated marine heatwaves over the past decade could be linked to reduction in pollution from factories in China.

        “The study”? What study? There’s no context!

        Over the past decade, the north Pacific has experienced multiple such heatwaves – also known as "warm blob” events – leading to fish die-offs, toxic algae blooms and missing whales.

        Such heatwaves have been generally attributed to global warming though it is unknown exactly why it could cause such sudden and variable increases in a specific part of the planet.

        “Such heatwaves”? What heatwaves? There’s no context!

        The entire article is written like this. Every single sentence is its own paragraph other than the last one, which tacks a short quote at the end.
