OZONE HOLE

GLOBAL WARMING – OZONE HOLE
I just watched another chapter of the TV program 'Dinosaurs' which showed us the lush rain forests on the South Pole reminding us that Earth has undergone numerous major global temperature changes during the millions years past (ice ages) hence the ozone hole in the sky has shrunk or become larger for as yet no understood reason. Apparently (according to eminent scientists) all man made causes having an effect on the ozone hole getting larger is in the order between 1 to 2 percent.
An interesting radio program had the senior reporter commenting on a discussion years ago with a senior retired DSIR scientist here in Australia who commented at the time that he was the one responsible for floating the idea of pollution casing the 'enlarging ozone hole' as he was desperate at the time to obtain more research funds and needed to find a attention grabbing reason for that. He said once the cat was out of the bag with the mischievous statement that man made pollution caused the ozone hole getting larger he was unable to retract it.
Be sure to focus not on the side issues but on the overall picture.
