1) The ozone layer and global warming have nothing to do with each other. The ozone layer problem was caused by chlorine atoms in the CFCs found in aerosol containers. Global warming is caused by an abundance of "greenhouse" gases, such as CO2, in the atmosphere that trap in reradiated heat, thus warming the globe.
2) Is global warming real? Well, that is up for debate. The earth has certainly warmed over the last 100 years, but the Earth's temperatures vary greatly. More than anything, the earth's mean temperature is regulated by the Milankovic Cycles. These cycles basically predict how close or far the earth is from the sun during its seasons.
3) So, you're all confused. :) The sun is not expanding. The ozone was depleted by chlorine atoms foudn in CFCs. The globe is warming, but are humans to blame? Tough to say. Personally, I think global warming is a media-hyped ratings tactic.

you see the sun is right now too young to start expanding. and the only time that it will expand is when it starts to get old, where it will turn into a red giant or a blue dwarf which will further burst into a black hole and the sun has many millions of years to go before we even come close to that stage. Now a gas called carbon dioxide is released on burning of fossil fuels and one of its properties it that it traps high wavelength and low frequency heat waves. The heat waves emitted by a high temperature body(like the sun) are however high frequency andlow wavelength. but when they are reflected from the surface of the earth(which is much cooler), they gain a high wavelength and low frequency, so they are not able to pass out of the blanket of carbon dioxide surrounding the earth.due to increase in concentration of carbondi oxide, the amount of heat being retained is also larger, this is causing global warming. as for evolution. the rate at which global warming is happening is a lot lot faster than the time taken by the evolution process. so evn if evolution starts, it won't be completed in time if global warmin continues at this rate. hope i answered ur question

That is two questions,now let me see if I can get through to u. One of the gases that is sup post to accelerate the global warming is Corbin dioxide . Granted there should be billions of cubic ft. due to all the stuff that is burned,but where is it. They show grafts that shows that co2 has increases 30% well try to measure it ,it is a heavy Gas ,so it should be simple. Well I have worked with some of the most precise co2 meter and I found no more than 1 to 2 parts per million,that is almost nothing.What % is that and where did it go??? Well it is simple the little green plants absorber co2 and putout ox. that is where it all went. Now if the Gas that they blame for global warming is not there why wood u expect global warming to be there.the data that they are using on all the Gas that is causing this is all fake data. Someone that cant calculate is trying to calculate what should be there but Wrong.

I have to agree with egmidnight!!! The geological record proves that the Earth has gone thru many cycles of warming and cooling, and the current warming trend is nothing more than part of this natural cycle.

NO NO NO - First Global warming is REAL but Evolution is the real lie. Man did not evolve from a damn monkey.

No--the Sun is continuously observed to warn us of solar flares that affect satellites . If it was expanding, we'd notice it in about 8 minutes. It's not expanding,,,yet.
