My understanding is that pollution has a short term (~weeks) cooling effect due to global dimming, and a long term (~decades) warming effect due to the greenhouse effect. So this may cause a short term spike in global temperatures over the next few months. If this goes on long enough it could paradoxically accelerate climate change. Maybe we need a well place and timed nuke on the moon to compensate. EDIT: On the other hand increased sunlight may boost photosynthesis. All in all should be intresting to see the effect. Because it may show that we need to be more careful about mitigating certain types to pollutants (CO2) first and leaving others for later.
