The hole over Antarctica has closed significantly since the R-12 ban. I don't know that there is a cause/effect relationship here, but the coincidence does seems to lead us innocents to believe that there is. Mexico must not use much R-12. I do have 10 -12 lbs (in one bottle) of virgin R-12 if anyone wants to come get it for the market value (whatever that is). Shipping it legally is prohibitive. I also would not have believed that human activity could cause earthquakes - what could a little water injected deep in the earth here and there do? However, there does seem to be a direct correlation between the deep injection wells (for fracking fluids/waste water) and the huge number of earthquakes that we are experiencing in OK now. Based on this, I am not willing to rule out the possibility of human causes of climate change/global warming. I my self am contributing a fair amount of CO2 to the air, and releasing it higher in the atmosphere than most of you. Global Warming means just that - "GLOBAL" - not local. Watch the cycles of the jet stream, etc. and you can see why some areas are cooler than they used to be while the planet as a whole is getting warmer. OK has been overall warmer the last few years, mostly due to warmer winters than usual. > > -- OK Don NSA: The only branch of government that actually listens to US citizens! *“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.”* – Mark Twain "There are three kinds of men: The ones that learns by reading.
