Most ‘Global Warming’ Caused by A Reduction of Real Pollution
A groundbreaking new analysis has emerged, challenging the mainstream narrative on “global warming” and throwing a wrench in the radical climate agenda
According to researchers from the University of Exeter, the biggest factor driving global warming since 2001 is not the rise in carbon dioxide levels, but rather a reduction in sulfur dioxide (SO2) pollution.
The revelation has major implications for the “global warming” debate and for the “environmental” policies that push for costly regulations and collectivist government control.
The researchers found that the decline in SO2 emissions, which have been linked to industrial and maritime pollution, has resulted in darker clouds, causing less solar radiation to be reflected into space.
This means that the Earth is absorbing more heat from the Sun, leading to “global warming.”
The study, presented at the UK’s Exeter Climate Conference, raises questions about the narrative that CO2 is the primary driver of “climate change” and suggests that a reduction in pollution, rather than an increase in CO2, is behind the warming trend.
The researchers’ analysis of CERES data from 2001 to 2019 reveals a stark correlation between the reduction in sulfur dioxide and a decline in the Earth’s albedo, the planet’s ability to reflect sunlight back into space.
The findings suggest that, contrary to popular belief, less pollution is what’s really driving global warming. As Professor Peter Cox, a leading climate scientist at Exeter University, put it:
“Two-thirds of the global warming since 2001 is SO2 reduction rather than CO2 increases.”
For years, the globalist climate agenda has hinged on the idea that CO2 emissions are responsible for heating the planet, leading to sweeping policies like the Paris Agreement and carbon taxes that cripple industries and harm everyday consumers.
But this new data exposes the flawed logic behind many climate policies. The study emphasizes that sulfate pollution, mostly from industrial emissions and ship exhaust, actually increases cloud brightness, making the clouds more reflective.
These clouds can act as a shield against solar radiation, cooling the Earth. The reduction in sulfate pollution, largely due to moves away from high-sulfur fuels like coal, has caused clouds to darken, reducing their ability to reflect sunlight.
In essence, we’re seeing a climate shift caused by environmental regulations and policy decisions, not CO2 emissions.
The global push to cut ‘pollution’ has had unintended consequences, leading to warmer temperatures. This new information is catastrophic for the globalist “climate change” lobby that has been pushing for massive government intervention based on CO2.
The idea that the real cause of warming might be a decrease in air pollution, not an increase in CO2, is a huge blow to the narrative that the world is on the brink of disaster unless we embrace extreme climate policies.
We are now faced with the uncomfortable truth that decades of climate hysteria, driven by government-backed environmental groups, have been based on incomplete or misleading science.
What does it mean for the Green New Deal, for global ‘carbon’ taxes, and for the radical policies that push for socialist-style regulation of industries and energy?
Will policymakers finally have the courage to reconsider their climate mandates in light of this new research? The findings are raising serious doubts about the true motives behind the global push for climate action.
Many believe that the ‘climate crisis’ narrative is being used as a front to push for a radical socialist agenda that would give governments unchecked power to control the economy.
The drastic measures demanded by environmental groups, like the abolition of ‘fossil fuels’ and the implementation of massive government subsidies for “green” industries, are not about saving the planet, but about creating big government control.
Is the reduction in pollution really driving “climate change?” Or is this just another reason to demand more centralized control over global industries, energy, and personal freedom?
As more research surfaces, the case for transparency and honesty in climate science becomes more urgent. This new data calls for a rethink of the entire climate policy framework.
The facts are clear: The real culprit behind any changes in Earth’s temperature may not be the ‘carbon’ footprint but the decrease in certain pollutants, a discovery that could reshape the entire climate debate, and the global elites have been promoting an agenda that has less to do with ‘saving the planet’ and more to do with pushing globalism and socialism.

The Greenhouse Effect was devised by scientists during the 19th century without all of the necessary facts to be able to understand the physics driving climate. It was only in the 1890’s that Madam Curie discovered radioactivity. Unfortunately scientists since then have failed to relate this to the sources of heat within the Earth otherwise we would know that there is no such thing as a Greenhouse Gas to cause the current Net Zero scam.

When things get out of balance bad things happen. Not very scientific but there you have it.
