guy, the growing season is a week longer in the artic now.  
heard about that? those wonderful aerosal cans produced CFC's 
into the atmosphere which take 100 years to exit.  and as 
each little CFC exits, in takes two ozone molecules with it. 
 go sit outside, and you'll burn in 15 minutes.  oh and BTW, 
the ice caps are melting.  for awhile global warming 
prevented the earth from begining a slide into another 
ice-age, but now, as we continue to pollute, global warming 
has made up for that handicap and begun to warm the planet 
like a greenhouse.
