Birger: Anticipation doesn't negate the hoax. AGW is a fraud, a cult, a deception, a lie.

This article is about albedo. "whiter" albedo cools the earth.

But the opposite is true. A darker albedo warms the earth (assuming sunshine/clouds are the same).

The Earthshine project measured earths albedo and found it got significantly darker in the 1990s. And then got a little less dark after 1998 when warming stopped.

Which explains all warming.

Why does your data stop at 2003?

Lack of funding probably.

It doesn't make it the data go away.

And albedo changes from 1980s to 1998 (when warming stopped) caused a difference of 6.8W/m2 which is almost triple claimed for all CO2 warming from 1850.
