Thinning of the ozone?  outdated?  How so?

Because it appears to be no longer thinning.
It was fixed solong ago, nobody talks about the ozone layer being broken unless they're a democrat or ignorant.

I'd hardly consider it "fixed."

Quote from: http://www.csmonitor.com/2003/0801/p01s02-ussc.htmlWhile this one-two punch of good news is encouraging, the ozone layer is hardly home free, researchers say.

...

"We need to stay diligent" and keep to the protocol's provisions to have any hope of restoring the ozone layer, says Elizabeth Weatherhead, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

Uh . . . FTW any hardcore ozone-pwning chemicals have been banned for a while.

Banned in public use in the United States.  That does not mean they were banned totally, like from military or industrial usages.  While I was in the Navy we regularly used liquid CFC solvents on electronics.  They are wonderful solvents, causing the corrosion to just pour off without doing any damage to the electronics.

As far as banned for a while; yes, but realize that these chemicals are heavy and take some time to rise up in density to deplete ozone.  I once heard on the order of 20-40 years before they have their full effect on the ozone layer.

I knew the hole was shrinking, but I had heard that the rest of the ozone was just thinning.

So BASICALLY...the ozone is getting better.....cool

Too bad there is no true environmental movement. Much as the right has used terrorism as a catalyst for political power, the left tries (and pathetically fails, as they usually do) to use environmentalism as a catalyst for their political power. It's a smart decision: a catastrophic problem caused by the oil industry, which, as a successful economic entity, obviously supports the right.

Global warming is a serious problem. Unfortunately, the left sucks, and rather than actually trying to stimulate the economy into creating a viable alternate fuel, they con people into fear so they can get leaders elected and legislate big government all over the place.
