Cooling is due to increased cloud cover and reduced solar radiation.
Study highlights complex regional impacts of climate change.
Study reveals counterintuitive cooling effect in India
A recent study published in *Nature* reveals a counterintuitive phenomenon in India: increased CO2 levels can lead to summer cooling. This research, based on data from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase six (CMIP6), challenges the conventional understanding of global warming by demonstrating that certain regions can experience localized cooling effects due to specific atmospheric conditions.
