Nitrous Oxide Fingered as Monster Ozone Slayer

I thought caring about the ozone layer went out of fashion since the invention of global cooling...er, warming...sorry, climate change. Nature creates more CFC's than mankind does. A volcano releases more CFC's into the atmosphere than mankind has ever produced in its history.
This stuff is fake. Fake, fake, fake. It's a bunch of envriomental Nazis who want to tell you how to live (notice that the supposed global cooling AND global warming were both caused by bad old fossil fuels). They overstate, obfuscate, and outright lie to make you believe that we can "save" the Earth only by living like it was the 19th century.

The entire climate is very complex. I have the strong impression that people who are sure of themselves just do not have a good handle one what they do not know. It is important that we do the right thing. I support research on all things climate.

This stuff is real. Don't mock it unless you're happy to go live at the tip of South America, where the hole in the Ozone hole sometimes wanders. You will not enjoy that experience in the sun.

How much nitrous oxide is produced by lightning? This must be accounted for before any conclusions be can be drawn against human activity.

I was finally able to sleep at night again since I hadn't heard about holes in the ozone for about 15 years. Now the nightmares will start again! Thx alot!
Here's some junk science for ya! How about the holes in the ozone releases the greenhouse gases into space and therefore helps to fight global warming! It's a win-win situation!
Now we can all go back to driving our offroad SUV's and smoking cigars made out of baby seals! Live is good again!
