I'm starting to think that maybe I should go for the nom de plume of muddywaters; but I have some global warming and other threats to life on Earth things to get off my chest -- and in the most unscientific of ways. The mention of NASA and Ozone depletion had me thinking. For the sake of reducing our use of a lot of antropogenic chemicals starting with the letter "C", science had us dump our favourite aerosol propellants and Freon in exchange for other less harmful ones. This was done in order to reduce the effects that mankind was having on the Ozone layer(s), yet, according to Wiki, the hole is still growing. My instinct (remember this is a paranormal forum) says these chemicals may destroy ozone -- but what depletes it is ... space rocketry. Yes, I think NASA and other nations and private corporations have been punching holes in the atmosphere -- unfettered -- since 1959 and the hole has been more noticeable since they themselves started measuring it -- that the two must be correlated. The more they send satellites etc. up to study it the more it grows...the observer effect, perhaps.

Glacier melts and global warming. This is less scientific than it is historic, and it speaks to the lack of past evidence of increasing sea levels with a warming northern Atlantic. Eric-the-Red. Behorned manslaughterer. Exiled from Norway and then asked nicely to leave Iceland, took his family and followers on a voyage of exploration to [re]discover Greenland. They set up a few settlements that lasted a few generations on the west-side of Greenland. Farming, fishing and trade with their Icelandic relatives kept them going for some time. One of the factors resulting in the collapse of the communities and their leaving Greenland was an increase in sea ice. Apparently, according to reports I've read, you cannot visit these sites very easily today as they are iced-in -- all year round. Just sayin'.

Maybe these (we) global warming skeptics can be called "Aglobal" Warmingers or Global "Awarmingers" and you'd cut us more slack Angel?
