Stable ozone layer, the recovery path

Stable ozone layer, the recovery path

The ozone layer is not disappearing and can return to full strength in the middle of this century, UN scientists have confirmed.

The phasing-out of over 100 substances used in products such as fridges and aerosols stopped the ozone layer being impoverished, although it is still not increase, according to a new United Nations report, released last week.

Almost all life on the planet benefits from this.People benefit especially (millions of cases of skin cancer avoided, cultures and protected animals, etc.).This is an absolute success for the Earth.

And it is worth remembering that, when the Montreal Protocol (the international agreement that progressively chemicals that destroy the ozone layer) was being debated, conservative extremists and spokespersons of industry in the u.s. and U.K. first said that there was no need for it, after that he could never work with so many Nations, and finally that he would destroy the economy if ratified. you might notice that these are the same arguments made against the action of the climate in these Nations.

The Montreal Protocol shows that international action can actually work, and it works very well indeed when the largest economies commit themselves more boldly. large project, the engineering and ecological challenges must be met to address the climate crisis, Yes, but the biggest barriers to action climate all involve the political opposition of interests.

Let me propose something radical here-North and South anomalies, as they are called by George Dobson, the man who discovered the "hole" in the 1940s, may actually be a natural process totally affected by that humans do what these "protocols" benefit companies make is that create replacement chemicals that are supposed to be more secure-even the new chemicals are corrosive to metal and rubber, they leak, are not as efficient, and they cost ten times more to produce. Time were you could buy a refrigerator in the 1950s and was his life since left the Montreal Protocol, the new refrigerators have a lifetime of less than 10 years. built in obsolescence for Pocket line of companies facing a reductive people (after the baby boomers dies out) and being sold under the pretext of being morally better due to environmental concerns.
