Earth's Dimming and Symmetry Loss Signal Climate Shifts

TL;DR Summary
Recent satellite data reveal that the Earth's Northern Hemisphere is absorbing more sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere, breaking the long-standing symmetry. This shift is attributed to melting snow and ice, reduced pollution, and increased water vapor, potentially impacting global climate patterns. The study highlights the complex interactions between clouds, aerosols, and surface changes in Earth's energy balance.
