From the Paper:
Global Warming has become a political, rather than a scientific issue. Mainly, it is a struggle between the economically powerful nations, to whom switching to more efficient fuels is less of an economic burden and the developing nations, who are less concerned with science and more with the welfare of their depressed populations. A little background is in order:In 1974, two scientists wrote a research paper. The theme was that because Chlorofluorocarbons, CFC's, were extremely stable in our lower atmosphere, they could drift into the stratosphere, break apart, and release large quantities of chlorine into the atmosphere. The report stated that each chlorine atom could potentially destroy 100,000 ozone molecules."
