Some researchers had also suggested that the latter might influence global warming because the rays trigger cloud formation.

I had not realized that soot accounts for 40 percent of springtime warming that Co2 does nor that soot only stays a few weeks in the atmosphere. This tells me that if we'd cut out all industrial activity for a few weeks, the atmosphere would clear itself of soot, which would slow down the warming (I know we couldn't do that, but now I can see a short-term benefit of not polluting.
