    I think I recall the opposite. After having somewhat cleaner fuel, the ships cleaner exhaust caused more warming as the sulfur in the fuel was having a side effect of mitigating warming somewhat. It was raised as a point of maybe we should consider the approach of we are in dire straights.

      I remember to have read that change caused some other problems, and these collateral problems were unexpected.

      But I don’t remember if the problem were about the ocean currents or that the ocean was warmer or a mix of the two plus something else.
