[QUOTE="sjastro, post: 76207490, member: 352921"] A consequence of lower stratospheric cooling is our atmosphere is shrinking. If global greenhouse-gas emissions continue at their current level or increase, a new study suggests the stratosphere will shrink by about 1.3 km by 2080 – about a 4% decrease from its average thickness between 1980 and 2018. This thinning could eventually mess with GPS navigational systems, radio communications and the trajectories of orbiting satellites where atmospheric drag is a factor.
