Has anyone ever placed their hand on a white car that has set in the sun on a summer say. Ok now put you hand on a black car. So all this flat tundra full of white snow is to be changed to trees of varying shades of brown.

Snow or ice crystals is one of the most reflective surfaces there is. Anyone ever notice how snow melts down around the trunk of a tree.

Most don't understand a first order direct effect. Understanding 2nd order effects is beyond hope.
