Let me guess: you still think that we all are going to die of skin cancer because of the whole in the ozone layer? What happened to that thing? Got old? I'll tell you what. New taxes were imposed world-wide and the problem disappeared over night. Coldest winters in living memory and these clowns still push "global warming" propaganda. Why don't you turn off the TV and open the eyes, huh?

So… we actually took significant steps to solve a real problem and we solved it? I'm not sure how this is an argument against climate change.

I hate to feed the troll here, but the ozone hole problem was solved because of a concerted international effort to reduce CFCs going into the atmosphere, eg. by eliminating them from refrigerator coolants.

  And it's not solved. Still plenty of skin cancer downunder. It kills.

Therefore I conclude that putting out fires is easy, and I don't see why people keep moaning about forest fires." > Coldest winters in living memory Where? It's been balmy as hell here in Kentucky these past two or three winters. Fleas and ticks are getting really bad without a long, hard freeze to kill them all off. The world's pretty big, you know. Just 'cause it was cold in your neck of the woods doesn't mean the planet's not getting hotter. You can find the global average numbers as well as I can; they speak for themselves.

  Sidenote: Might be a bad idea to pour water over a toaster.
