Because the ozone layer hole killed everyone back in the 1990s, right?
And there's no more ice in the polar regions as of 2013, right?
You know why that is? Because we fucking did something about it
One time THE ENTIRE WORLD worked together to fix a problem so that means problems arent real
Idiot that can't understand that ozone hole is not a problem anymore because of regulations that limited the use of ozone degrading chemicals. Also seems to have zero grasps of thermodynamics. me, shocked
Okay, how do you explain the other climate doomsday predictions that have long since come and gone in the past 30 years?
Why aren't we all under water by now?
Which predictions? By whom, which authentic agency?
Were they peer-reviewed?
If you get diagnosed of some disease and you get cured because you took proper treatment, does it mean that you never had the disease?
The predictions about Ozone depletion had peer-reviewed research and stuff, right?
Or do you see some other motive that'd influence it?
Pretty sure polar ice caps are still shrinking.
Sorry the consequences of industry aren't snappy enough for your short attention span, I guess?
