NASA: Environmental disaster avoided on ozone loss

By SETH BORENSTEIN

WASHINGTON (AP) — Here's rare good news about an environmental crisis:
We dodged disaster with the ozone layer. A NASA study about ozone-
munching chemicals from aerosol sprays and refrigeration used a
computer model to play a game of what-if. What if the world 22 years
ago didn't agree to cut back on chlorofluorocarbons which cause a
seasonal ozone hole to form near the South Pole?

Uh huh!!! Did anyone notice that this ozone hole crisis, DuPont's patent on
it's (Prestone) antifreeze ran out, and DuPont just coincidentally had an
acceptable substitute ready for market at just about the same time??? At
least, unlike the ban on DDT, this one didn't kill millions of people!
