During the record - setting wildfire season of 2012, Box was anxious to quickly get to Greenland to collect samples of the ice to see if soot from Colorado was landing on the glaciers, but by that time, traditional sources of science research funding were already allocated, so in his unorthodox, punk rock style, Box set out on his own and set up The Dark Snow Project to crowd - fund his research.

There is no «proof» that these are more than natural occurrences (or, admittedly, neither that they are not) and require, for now, really contorted tortuous explanations (snow / ice getting covered with soot, Arctic really getting lots warmer than the few tenths of a degree of the global average just the past 2 - 3 decades, etc.) why AGW is causing them — though they are professed with religious conviction.

One factor that gets short review — aside from a recent small article in New Scientist Magazine — is the increasing prevelance of soot in the arctic and its effects on ice melt.

As we measure more and more aerosol emission effects, such as soot - published in January - and check on ever - changing factors such as polar ice reduction, more evidence makes us less likely to get it wrong.

This definition removes the non-CO2 anthropogenic effects (aerosols, methane, soot etc.) and avoids getting trapped by the model centric view.

I was disappointed that they did not go into specifics of monitoring procedures and how they got their numbers, but the message was clear: deforestation is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions (mostly carbon dioxide, but also methane and black soot) and that it needs to be addressed in the Kyoto Protocol.

To get a clear sense of soot — which is known to scientists as black carbon — an international team of 31 atmospheric scientists has worked for the past four years to analyze all the data they could.

Soot in the air converts the sun's radiant energy immediately into heat energy so that plants can not get sun's energy for photosynthesis to occur.
