Global Warming and Energy

Scientists discover another negative feedback mechanism related to CO2.

"The researchers found that the effect acts in reverse in the atmosphere as volatile organic compounds from pollution or from the biosphere evaporate and give off characteristic aromas, such as the pine smells from forest, but under moist cooler conditions where clouds form, the molecules prefer to be liquid and make larger particles that are more effective seeds for cloud droplets."

So as CO2 feeds plant growth, the plant vapors feed cloud growth and albedo, cooling the climate.
