Didn’t click that because it might be another YouTube link.

But you are right, particulates don’t create heat, it’s not magic.

It traps heats…

Like, that’s kind of what climate change is…

None of it is creating heat, it’s retaining heat from the sun.

I honestly wasn’t going to reply again, but if you think any type of pollution honestly creates heat, that’s a big enough misconception I feel obligated to point out

It all just traps and retains heat from the sun. Because of it temperatures don’t cool as much as night, and makes the next day hotter.

And it just keeps stacking, day after day after day…
