New research reveals that a build-up of greenhouse gases threatens to thicken the clouds of haze that blanket many parts of the world. Radical climate shifts can alter air circulation and precipitation, both of which affect air pollution levels. That`s because rain and snow can wash pollution out of the skies, while winds can disperse thick clouds of it....
