Climate engineering and solar charging

I read a magazine article about people getting less from solar panels do to the increase of climate engineering, sume are reporting up to 20%. Al Gore was on the Ellen Degenerous show years ago and said the sky will not be blue because of the aluminum dust.

Nobel prize winner, Inventor of the internet, the discoverer of global cooling and then global warming. Again out with new scam / scary movie another cataclysmic fantasy.
Ozone holes in the sky reality or lobbying for new spray filler? LOL

Yes I agreed about Al. YouTube: atmospheric geoengineering. I am 61 years old and remember dark blue sky down to to horizon and a bright orange yellow Sun. Now it looks like an L.E.D. light. Turn on your flashlight at night and look at the dust. It's called aluminum nanoparticles and it looks like smoke.

Apart from the potentially volatile topic, i'd say it seems very unlikely to see such dramatic drops in solar collection on a global scale, except in places like Hong Kong where the main culprit is air pollution.
Keep in mind at the same time in the last few years solar collection efficiency has been on the rise. Gore and his buddies made global warming such a political topic that more knowledgeable experts like Dr. Richard Lindzen of MIT were sort of drowned out by Hollywood. But look up Lindzen's articles and you hear a calmer voice on the topic.

Little known fact here on TF:
Contrary to what you may have heard, you're not obligated to read every thread on the forum. Something you apparently weren't aware of.

Hope this bit of information helps.

Specific to the question, I've seen no change in solar output.

OCD, I don’t spend my day on boat forums and am quite aware of that fact. People can have whatever opinion they want concerning climate change. I am referring to the ridiculous rants that accompany their predictable opinions.
