Scientists have identified four new man-made gases that are contributing to the depletion of the ozone layer. Two of the gases are accumulating at a rate that is causing concern among researchers. Worries over the growing ozone hole have seen the production of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases restricted since the mid 1980s Read full article

    “Now, researchers from the University of East Anglia have discovered evidence of four new gases that can destroy ozone and are getting into the atmosphere from as yet unidentified sources.”

    Ah! The U.E.A. the well know “Global Warming, latterly “Climate Change” liars and fabricators of the data.

    They are going to reap what all liars find out for themselves: nobody who knows anything about theses deceitful bastards are going to believe them.

    Has any reputable organization confirmed their latest scare story? I bet not.

    Actually when UEA was thoroughly and independantly investigated.
    The science was found to be sound. Only presented rather poorly.

    Climate change denier bang on about how the models change.

    Well of course they do as more data is collected and the models improved.

    Scientific method is poorly understood by many.
    And when deniers don't like the answer they question the science.
    Climate science does not predict the weather but the chemical interactions between gasses, the physics of which are very well understood.

    @ 2 zathras

    First paragraph: hockey stick, supported by UEA and utter bollocks as we have since found out.

    “Climate science does not predict the weather but the chemical interactions between gasses, the physics of which are very well understood.”

    I take it from that that you are not a scientist and have little experience.

    I am a British professional Electrical Mechanical Engineer and at (almost) 68 YO am studying Astro-Physics by long distance learning from MIT (that’s the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the USA).

    Care to explain some of the anomalies that UEA and the other twats made such as “it will get hotter and hotter until the temperature runs away with itself (due to CO2 in the atmosphere), when we are facing an ice-age?

    Why the North Pole hasn’t melted anywhere near the “consensus” of “scientists” said it would?

    I should start looking at ALL the data that is available if I were you. But you won’t will you, it would spoil the “vision” of the chief crook in this eyewash, no other than Al (billionaire after this malarkey) Gore.
