Cleaner air may be accelerating warming by making clouds less reflective

Earth is reflecting less sunlight, and absorbing more heat, than it did several decades ago. Global warming is advancing faster than climate models predicted, with observed temperatures exceeding projections in 2023 and 2024. These trends have scientists scrambling to understand why the atmosphere is letting more light in.

🌬️ Dust for Everybody, Free of Charge…!

This is the English translation of my earlier article analyzing the recurring dust storms caused by tailings and waste dumps in the Kryvyi Rih Iron Ore Basin.

Using large meteorological datasets and satellite observations, I demonstrated that extreme dust emissions coincide with the region’s dry spring winds — a seasonal pattern that persists year after year.

The findings challenged local industrial “dust control” programs, showing that their methods do not reflect real climatic conditions.
The publication sparked a wide public debate, meetings of the municipal working group, and eventually led to updates in enterprise dust-suppression policies.
