China Saves Mother Earth from Global Warming!




Who would have thought it?  Communist China saves the world from global warming!  All of those coal fired power plants have been a boon not to just Wal-Mart but for mankind in general.  Don’t believe me?  Well, just take a look at the latest theory:

The answer seems counterintuitive. It's all that sulfur pollution in the air from China's massive coal-burning, according to a new study.

Sulfur particles in the air deflect the sun's rays and can temporarily cool things down a bit. That can happen even as coal-burning produces the carbon dioxide that contributes to global warming.

"People normally just focus on the warming effect of CO2 (carbon dioxide), but during the Chinese economic expansion there was a huge increase in sulfur emissions," which have a cooling effect, explained Robert K. Kaufmann of Boston University. He's the lead author of the study published Monday in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
Screw alternative energy, if you want to save the planet fire up a dirty coal plant.  It’s the new Coke!
