But at a lesser level than it is currently being damaged Why aren't the greenies howling about this?? miami.com ...Scientists say the new technology could lead to greater destruction of the ozone layer that protects Earth from cancer-causing ultraviolet rays. Researchers said in a report Thursday saying that if hydrogen replaced fossil fuels to run everything from cars to power plants, large amounts of hydrogen would drift into the stratosphere as a result of leakage and indirectly cause increased depletion of the ozone... ____________________________________________________________ And let's pass legislation to ban volcanoes, while we're at it. ess.geology.ufl.edu Effects of Volcanoes on Ozone Depletion: Just as the aerosol formation from volcanic eruptions may lead to global cooling, it may also contribute to the ozone depletion process. When the volcanic clouds release sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, these droplets of sulfuric acid form aerosols. When chlorine compounds from broken down chlorofluorocarbons are present in the stratosphere, the aerosols serve to convert them into more active forms that may cause more rapid ozone depletion. Therefore, volcanoes may also have this devastating effect on the state of global affairs.
