In this paper we provide an overview on why the alternate solution to global warming has numerous advantages over greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction. This is initially evident in considering that prior to greenhouse gas reemission, LWR must first occur. In the chain of events, initially we have incoming short wave radiation, absorption, long wave emission, then re-radiation from GHGs. In theory, we can focus on any event in order to mitigate climate change. However, reducing absorption also prevents a second event, greenhouse gas (GHG) reemission. Therefore, in comparison, the greenhouse gas effect is less dynamic. As well the pace and depth of the GHG solution is tenuous. It is of interest in this paper to look at the absorption part in the chain of events. It is obvious that an albedo solution is in theory possible. However, research in this area seems stagnant and implementing even urban heat island cool roofs on a global level has not gone forward. In particular, in this paper we provide some basic modeling and provide insight into “Earthly components” that one could focus on to increase opportunity for reducing climate change.
