This observatory is a terrific facility that will enable us to keep an eye on the chemical balance of the atmosphere and feed this information into global climate models to greatly improve predictions for this region in the future".
These scientists aren't on the cutting edge of their science. They have to find new ways to make the data i the model. /s/

[ It has particular significance because ozone in the lower atmosphere acts as a greenhouse gas and its destruction also leads to the removal of the third most abundant greenhouse gas; methane. ]
We can all, um, cough a sigh of relief.

that dreaded ozone again, ozone in the lower atmosphere is actually a greenhouse gas? so this is bad. in the upper atmosphere it keeps out the uv rays so this is good. but if the upper atmosphere ozone hole closes to much it traps greenhouse gases, this is bad. omg! i am getting a headache.

These chemicals, produced by sea spray and emissions from phytoplankton (microscopic plants in the ocean), attack the ozone, breaking it down.Voila!
But of course. We should have known that long ago; but, then, of course we did.

What’s the thickness of the ozone layer and how difficult is it to measure?
To: CWWren
so it wasn’t all those cfc’s we were spraying into the air?

"So, what's causing this loss?... the chemicals bromine and iodine oxide over the ocean... These chemicals, produced by sea spray and emissions from phytoplankton (microscopic plants in the ocean)..." How are the environmentalists going to spin this one?

"This startling discovery ... "I can't help it ...
Every time I see one of these statements ... I think of the "press conference" in Wag The Dog, and Dustin's various "warrooms", hatching out a/the plot.
Dustin starts thinking, and word association and fantasy alone finalizes the location ... Albania !
And it is all reported as sudden, who could'a known, knock me over with a feather ... surprize !!

No, no, no. You’re not current. Scinentist last week announced a change in the way they collected data to make it better fit the model. I’m serious.

omg! i am getting a headache. I gave up trying to understand their logic a long time ago. The whole "it's getting hotter so the whole planet is going to freeze in a new ice age" revelation left me with a migraine so I just leave it to the guys at South Park to explain it to me.

around 50% more than predicted by the world's state-of-the-art climate models So these purportedly "state-of-the-art" climate models have a 50% error. And now we're supposed to destroy a multi-trillion dollar economy because these models say we must do so to "save the Earth".
What's wrong with this picture?
