NASA has been studying cloud height for the past ten years. The data suggests that less clouds are forming at higher altitudes and more are forming at lower altitudes. Interestingly, the overall cloudtop height is lower as well. Scientists think that this will result in a cooling of the Earth.
The Earth is an organism just like people, animals, bacteria, and plants. It's so cool.
