... NASA: Environmental disaster avoided on ozone loss Really, then explain how the fact that CFC use has continued to increase in the new booming economies such as China and India? While China stopped exporting CFCs, they continue to use them at an huge rate. ditto for India. So CFC use is continuing to increase, so exactly how is some supposed disaster being avoided?

Professional wrestlers have more credibility than NASA. * A completely insane lie. *lol They both know the outcome before the show starts. Unfortunately, tax payers can choose not to support the professional wrestlers. |

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? NASA atmospheric scientist Paul Newman said the answer is a "bizarre world." By 2065, two-thirds of the protective ozone layer would have vanished and "the ozone hole covers the Earth." And the CFCs, which are long- lived potent greenhouse gases, would have pushed the world's temperature up an extra 4 degrees. [ . . . ] "It is a real horrible place," Newman told The Associated Press. But that dreadful scenario was "a world avoided," according to the paper published this week in the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics. After scientists raised warnings in the early 1970s — later earning a Nobel Prize — 193 nations agreed in the1987 treaty called the Montreal Protocol to cut CFC emissions. CFCs had been used in air conditioning, aerosol sprays, foam packaging and other products. Newman, the co-chair of the protocol's scientific panel, said the study provides hope that the world can do the same thing on another looming but even harder to solve environmental problem: Global warming. "There's a huge lesson to be learned here," said Paul Wapner, director of Global Environmental Politics at American University. "In significant cases, human beings can get together and arrive at international or global principles and avoid ecological catastrophe."

Poor NASA. Desperately trying to hold onto funding and personnel at all
costs. Totally avoiding their MANDATE to explore SPACE in the hopes of hooking up to the global warming gravytrain. Too bad their last global warming satellite ended up in the ocean, still what's $650M when you can just keep borrowing from China? |
