Therefore, curbing the emissions of HFCs from inhalers is unnecessary and would have minimal effect on the climate. Given this conclusion, the selection of inhalers to prescribe to patients with…

California man is first in the US to be charged with smuggling greenhouse gases, prosecutors say
DOJ will probably recommend SuperMax for life.
Climate Change – Is It Time to Say Goodbye to Inhaled Anaesthesia?
Every sector must play its part in reducing both emission of harmful gases and overall energy use.
Claim: 1987 Montreal Ozone Rules Held Back “Scorched Earth” Extreme Global Warming
According to a new study, the Montreal protocol is protecting the ability of plants to absorb CO2, preventing an 0.8C surge in global warming.
Claim: The Montreal Protocol Saved the Arctic From Global Warming
Guest essay by Eric Worrall A novel excuse for why RCP 8.5 is running way too hot, yet is still essentially correct, from the “ship of fools” home base, the…
Ooops. Despite Montreal Protocol, ozone-destroying CFC's on the rise
NOAA finds rising emissions of ozone-destroying chemical banned by Montreal Protocol Emissions of one of the chemicals most responsible for the Antarctic ozone hole are on the rise, despite an…
Earth’s ‘ozone hole’ shrinks to lowest since 1988
From NASA Goddard: Warm Air Helped Make 2017 Ozone Hole Smallest Since 1988 Measurements from satellites this year showed the hole in Earth’s ozone layer that forms over Antarctica each…
Claim: forget CO2, it's the Methane and CFC's that will drown us in the ocean
From the “it’s that Methane and Ozone Emergency again” department, comes this breathless headline, for a kitchen sink press release that even includes the obligatory faux sinking atoll of Tuvalu. I…
The Ozone Scare Was A Dry Run For The Global Warming Scare
Guest Opinion: Dr. Tim Ball My grandmother told me “Your sins will find you out.” I don’t know if it’s original, but it certainly seems true when you look at…
Atmospheric concentration of an ozone destroying chemical drops mysteriously
From the “possible measurement error” department. Larry O’Hanlon (via AGU blogs) writes: Something strange has happened to the atmospheric concentration of a newly discovered, human-made, ozone-destroying gas: it has suddenly…
Laughable AGU Claim: 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami 'spurred global warming'
From the “everything causes global warming” department….except, the effect they are claiming is miniscule compared to business as usual emissions in the USA. For example, they say in the PR:…
Mysterious new man-made gases pose threat to ozone layer…
Image Credits: NOAA – National Weather Service – Climate Prediction Center By WUWT Regular “Just The Facts” On the heels of Andrew Dessler’s Ozone Hole tweet, we have from the…
Claim: What would have happened to the ozone layer if chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) had not been regulated?
A new modeling based paper in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics takes on that question directly. Of course the result is another “saved the world” moment according to some: [ Source:…
At AGU, NASA says CFC reduction is not shrinking the ozone hole – yet
NASA Reveals New Results From Inside the Ozone Hole – Dec. 11, 2013 NASA scientists have revealed the inner workings of the ozone hole that forms annually over Antarctica and…
Busted messaging: CFC's cause warming AND cooling
From the make up your freaking minds department comes this oopsy juxtaposition of alarmist messaging. In an attempt to explain “the pause”, researchers are now grasping for explanations: Human actions…
Study says global warming caused by CFCs interacting with cosmic rays, not carbon dioxide
From the University of Waterloo, an extraordinary claim. While plausible, due to the fact that CFC’s have very high GWP numbers, their atmospheric concentrations compared to CO2 are quite low,…
Ozone hole in Antarctica shrinks significantly, but not a record low as erroneously reported elsewhere
While this is good news any way you look at it, I note there are a number of news reports saying that the “Ozone Hole Shrinks to Record Low” which…
A paper unifying cosmic ray interaction, CFC's ozone, and warming
On Cosmic-Ray-Driven Electron Reaction Mechanism for Ozone Hole and Chlorofluorocarbon Mechanism for Global Climate Change Qing-Bin Lu, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Waterloo Abstract Numerous laboratory measurements have…
Climate change – off in the ozone
From the Harvard University news service and the what are they smoking department, comes this suggestion that apparently it never was ozone damaging CFC refrigerants at all, it was those…
China's climate ca$h blackmail
Who says you can get rid of entitlements? WUWT covered this issue over HFC-23 production previously in The biggest environmental scandal in history. It seems it is about to get bigger.…
