Speaking of Global Warming Power Line The return of arctic conditions to much of the U.S. has many people sympathizing with this cartoon by Sam Ryskind: Unlike most cartoonists, Rysind writes, too: <<< You don't hear much about the ozone hole any more. Has it gone away? Nope. NOAA and NASA say in 2006 it was bigger and deeper than ever. But wait, you say, we implemented the Montreal Protocols in 1989, eliminating ozone depleting CFCs. Kofi Annan called the Protocol, "Perhaps the most successful international agreement to date." CFC concentrations have been falling since 1995. How can the ozone hole be worse? It's not worse, says NOAA, it's better. It's just that you can't see how great the Protocol is working because colder than average temperatures in the Antarctic mask the benefit. Cold weather "result[s] in larger and deeper ozone holes, while warmer weather leads to smaller ones." Colder in Antarctica? Al Gore told me it was melting! Al Gore told me there was consensus. Consensus! >>> powerlineblog.com web.mac.com
