I think I saw this movie

It really does seem like it’s going to be impossible to stop rich lunatics from having a go at geoengineering instead of just actually helping to slash emissions.

Pretty embarrassing overall for the species.

Rain follows the plow?

This is exactly backwards from what I would think: "Bright ones at low altitudes generally reflect solar energy away, whereas wispier ones up to 20,000 feet tend to trap heat.". I would have guessed high ones reflect it before it gets lower into the atmosphere.

Industrial production of isoprene is about 800,000 tons/year. Global emission from plants of the chemical is about 600 million tons/year.

In the US, the large natural emission of isoprene is why emission control for vehicles shifted to focus on NOx emission.

The edited title is misleading.

The original aricle's title is "Scientists Are Just Beginning to Understand How Life Makes Clouds, and Their Discoveries May Drastically Improve Climate Science." Indeed, this knowledge will improve the models we use to understand and predict the climate.

The supplied title "Cloud-forming isoprene and terpenes from crops may drastically improve climate" is completely different, as it states that crop emissions may change climate for the better.

"Understanding cloud-forming isoprene and terpenes from crops may drastically improve climate science" would be a much better title for this post.
