Great big ozone hole this year — not as bad news as it sounds, cnn manipulated headline by SOLARLIFE

Do you remember CNN money, when they tried to lure you as the las t stupid to buy worthless shares. Especially on TV. Now the Environment scam of CNN, sponsored by Shell and other petrol hells angels, CNN tells us a big ozone hole is not a s bad News. The headline is sublimal destructive wrong Environment information. The Ultraviolett radiation will create askin cancer wave in 25 years. The ocean is chemical changed, no food out of genetic UV manipulated plankton. How long we continue to listen to the heavy industry sponsored good news planet junk? As long as we listened to the good old soldier crab of CNN, Russia attacked Georgia with burning tires video in the back ground.

No to such junk easy going manipulating headlines.

It's time that we clean up this planet, before the next Wall street losers tell us how to ruin the palnet for a view dollars more, before planet bancruptcy. 

But experts say that the “fifth-largest” designation may not necessarily be bad news at all.  They’re sticking to predictions that the ozone hole will repair itself over the rest of the 21st Century.  Colder-than-average temperatures and strong high level winds helped widen the hole this season.  Warmer weather as the Antarctic summer starts up helps close up the hole each year.

It’s been nearly four decades since the first research drew links between man-made chemicals and destruction of ozone in the upper atmosphere.  Chlorofluorocarbons and freon — once widely used in air conditioners and spray cans respectively, were among the substances that broke down stratospheric ozone — the key to protecting us from harmful solar radiation.  Projections indicate that a thinning ozone layer could lead to increases in human skin cancer, eye cataracts, and other maladies.  Dutch scientist Paul Crutzen and Americans Mario Molina and Sherwood Rowland shared the 1995 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for their discoveries.

Global concern over ozone damage led to what is widely regarded as a remarkably successful international treaty.  The Montreal Protocol was ratified in 1987 and took full effect nine years later, banning most uses of ozone-destroying chemicals.

Scientists have reported a substantial reduction in the levels of ozone-destroying chemicals reaching the stratosphere.  But CFC’s, freon, bromides, and other ozone-eaters are particularly long-lasting, and may take much of the rest of this century to dissipate.  “The decline of these harmful substances to their pre-ozone hole levels … will take decades,” said NOAA chemist Stephen Montzka.

Translation:   Don’t lose the sunscreen.   Ozone layers have thinned planet-wide, and during the late-winter weather in either hemisphere, ozone protection reaches its lowest levels near the poles.  Less ozone in the upper atmosphere means more exposure to the ultraviolet radiation that can cause skin cancer.
