Oct. 11, 1995: 'We're Trashing the Ozone Layer'

How drole that this item appears immediately after this one.

"...showing that the release of nitrogen oxide through manmade chlorofluorocarbons damages the Earth's natural ozone layer"

Wired magazine is supposed to be a "technical" magazine. This, the first sentence to the article, is not only incorrect but does not make much sense.

I see this all the time. Why are these articles written by people that don't seem to have even the smallest grasp of the subject matter?

"The erosion of the ozone layer is not only a contributing factor to global warming but represents a threat to life itself"

Another amazing statement

Sorry, pet peeve.

It's hardly surprising the public is ill-informed, when the journalists manage to turn a fairly straightforward issue into a ???? what?

Arctic ozone hole is a big bother up here. The UV horrors this year have now been explained. I don't see why they can't send an umanned drone with some cationic flypaper to capture the chlorine and clean it up out of there. Guess they're waiting for it to dip down to New York.
