Chuck is absolutely right. There *may* be some real
scientific research
being conducted on the effect of CFCs on the ozone layer, but the
limited information the politicians have based the ban on is "junk
science" at best. I suggest reading the essay "Paranoia and Profit -
Holes in the Ozone Scare" by James P. Hogan. It's available online at:
Well, reminds me a lot of similar stuff in the 70s about
radioactive polution ... Since the very fist beginning man
has been exposed to radiation, and normal radiation is an
usual thing, so the low additional radiation is completely
riskless - and when our scientists tell so, then the radiation
emited in one of our minor leaks is no hazard...
and so on.
