CFC’s have been banned in the US for 15 years. If there was a correlation between banning CFC’s and global warming, shouldn’t the planet be a freezing chunk of ice by now?

I thought it was Bush’s fault.

“The world stopped warming dramatically when government regulations began to phase out CFCs, an event that culminated in the western world in 2000.”

I phased out the use of carrots in my soup last year. My cancer went into remission.

I suspect as the UN’s IPCC collapses into a large mound of steaming BS, lots of these crazy studies will be introduced to try and take up the ‘man-caused’ slack.

Accept only studies where you can access all the data and the science behind it.

The three biggest hoaxes, so far

CFC’s cause the ozone hole, debunked, banned
DDT causes harm, debunked, banned
CO2 causes global warming, laugh track

And yet people actually believed them.

"The heroes in this tale are environmentalists and world leaders such as U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney..."

OMG I can't stop laughing.

“The world stopped warming dramatically when government regulations began to phase out CFCs, an event that culminated in the western world in 2000.”

Problem solved, let’s drop it.

About 15 years ago, I began "phasing out" marital sex. Over the intervening years, the incidence of spousal headaches has dramatically decreased; and the incidence of waking up more often to pee has steadily increased.

I'm not certain about the former's cause/effect relationship; but, the latter I attribute to increased retained fluids that are no longer released in the previously accustomed manner.

More study is needed on the spousal headache question; any idea where I can apply for grant money?

This doesn’t account for the cooling scare leading up to the 1970s and a previous cooling period in the last hundred years. This climate science is crap.
