If it's increasing local rainfall that means it's contributing a cooling effect via the albedo of the clouds, too. Don't know if it would be measurable other than locally, though.
- throwway120385 3y agoSomeone just posted an article above about how our climate models just got precise enough to model cloud layer changes as CO2 increases. Somehow I doubt we can model things effectively enough to really predict that more evaporation will make things better instead of worse. Moisture can also be effective at raising the wet bulb temperature above what we can survive if it hasn't condensed into clouds.
