Global Dimming & Global Warming: What's the Difference?

[Arian]

I was watching NOVA the other day and it had a show on GLobal Dimming.
The idea that human made dust like pollutants would make clouds into super mirrors which would make temperature go down. Yet this contradicts Global Warming which raises Earth's average temperature by .8every 50 years or something.
Now it proved that G.Dimming had a strong effect by showing that 15% decrease in G.Dimming would boost temperatures (6*). So if you removed all of this G.D you would get a really high Warming Rate.
What are your opinions?

And here is a nice paper for you, if interested in reading a bit of scientific literature: http://www.mwnx.net/users/mac/Change%20in%20Earth's%20Reflectance%20over%20the%20Past%20Two%20Decades.rtfd
The one that is an rtf is the text, and the rest are figures.
