> “The more the ice melts, the more sea surface is exposed, the more iodine is emitted, the more particles are made, the more clouds form, the faster it all goes,” Kirkby said. A positive feedback loop. Not good. Reminds me of a passage from Daniel Quinn's "Ishmael". A man jumps off a cliff in a winged contraption. As he plummets to the ground, he truly believes for a short period that he is flying. If our biosphere is more fragile than once thought, I wonder if our current period will be humanity's short flight?
