RE: Why could we ban CFC's and fix the ozone layer but struggle with CO2 emissions?
The post deserves more attention than it has received, I think. You make a clear point by pointing out the complex differences (technical and economic) between CFC reform and CO2 reform. This is also a different time--I think we're in the midst of a cultural war and environmental issues have been caught up in that.
Thanks for the thumbs up! (sorry for late response, I was on vacation). That is indeed true, times are very different, although the CFC problem also didn't arose in ideal conditions for such changes. But the cultural difficulties and embeddedness of CO2 producing systems are a whole other level of difficult.
Such a great blog--and with all the rollbacks in the US today (in environmental protections), a necessary blog. I appreciate your response. Keep spreading the word. It's important.
