This has nothing to do with theology. Apparently the region of Almeria in southern Spain has been experiencing a "reverse greenhouse effect", a
decrease in average temperature of 0.3° C per decade, due to--wait for it--
greenhouses.

No, those aren't just unusually white-colored fields. |
So many rudimentary plastic greenhouses have been erected to grow fruits and vegetables that the albedo (reflectivity) of the region has increased by 9%, reflecting enough sunlight back into space to decrease the temperature.
Just wanted to share.
