Faster global warming linked to Chinese aerosol cuts
Chinese air quality improvements are likely to have contributed to accelerated global surface temperature warming, according to a research paper, with the Asian landmass warming at twice the global average.

Forecasting Smog Events Using ConvLSTM: A Spatio-Temporal Approach for Aerosol Index Prediction in South Asia
The South Asian Smog refers to the recurring annual air pollution events marked by high contaminant levels, reduced visibility, and significant socio-economic impacts, primarily affecting the Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP) from November to February. Over the past decade, increased air pollution sources such as crop residue burning, motor vehicles, and changing weather patterns have intensified these smog events. However, real-time forecasting systems for increased particulate matter concentrations …

Es reicht nicht, ein Arschloch zu sein, man muß auch richtig viel Scheiße rauslassen.
