Answer: We know that our atmosphere is comprised of water vapor, and this plays a dynamic role in reducing the green house effect. High temperature reflects a higher water vapor content.

So, here in Brandy's model, if we try to decrease the water vapor content in the atmosphere, then subsequently there will be a reduce in the amount of precipitation, as less amount of water will get vaporized in the atmosphere and precipitation will be comparatively less.
