Nick, whilst you are feeling so superior explain the Ozone hole again? Science settled? I read that the lack of sunlight was what made the hole. Bigger in the South because the loss of sunlight is more. So the "Scientists" say get rid of CFC's (Still made in Russia and India) and then in a thousand years it will get better. Mmmmm sounds like another con to me.
My point is still valid. Put bonds on these people. Personally I am fed up with seeing them thieve so much money from tax payers.

Billyd,

"September ozone hole has shrunk by 4 million square kilometres since 2000."

Yep, sometimes it increases (see CSIRO link above), sometimes it decreases. Its almost as though there are natural variations in nature. Nah...must be caused by man.

Incidentally, it was claimed above that the hole was discovered around 1980. In fact it was first observed by French scientists in the 1950. Back then they observed that it was getting smaller. Those were the days before scientists had worked out how to convert natural phenomena into scare-campaigns and research dollars and lucrative careers. So the French merely noted the change and moved onto other things. Fools missed a golden opportunity to become rich and famous.

Meanwhile in the real world:

"At 11:59 am eastern, the official White House website had a lengthy information page about the threat of climate change and the steps the federal government had taken to fight it. At noon, at the instant Donald Trump took office, the page was gone, as well as any mention of climate change or global warming."

How anyone can quote Trump as an authority on climate change is beyond me!

The mind does indeed boggle!
