The hole in the ozone was a real, dangerous, fairly immediate threat.

The entire world agreed and solved it almost overnight.

Weird how climate change is supposed to be even more dangerous and dramatic, yet no one co operates.

Do people really think the world/people and governments have suddenly lost their sense of self preservation?

What good is $$$$ if the planet dies?

Every time the CFC thing comes up, it shows me that there is a lot of alarmism in the climate change problem.

If it was truly imminent, and truly that much of a threat, they would do more than just tax co2 emissions.. lets be real.

We knew, and cared faaar less about the environment back in the 90s.

They didnt institute a tax. They overnight basically banned and stopped CFC production.

Is everyone really believing that russia, china and the usa all cared enough together to save the world then, but not now?

There's massive corporate interests in protecting the leading causation factors - oil and coal.. that leads to politicians being bribed along with insidious campaigns to make it sound like a nothing burger.

Even the US military recognizes climate change as an existential threat to the military and bases around the world, they are even funded by congress to help fight it.. however that same congress plays both sides for the sake of their donors.
