As I reflected on that disconnect, I concluded was that what they meant to say was that sun dimming was masking the greenhouse effect, that the greenhouse effect is actually worse than it seems because the temperature rise is being mitigated by sun dimming.

That is the correct deduction and I'm surprised that the progamme did not make that clear.

Of course, as particulate aerosol pollution gradually falls (because if nothing else we're going to run out of carbon to burn in such wasteful ways) the dimming will dwindle and surface warming will increase further.
