Most of the explanation lies in the area of "junk science". Hairsprays and air conditioners do produce chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). But, CFCs are, by their physical nature, heavier than air. So, if a gas which is heavier than air can work its own way 50-60 miles upward into the stratosphere to eat away at the ozone layer we should have been using it for rocket fuel since it seems to defy gravity. But, that's not the case. The CFCs which attack the ozone layer and produce the hole in that layer over the Ross Sea are lofted up by volcanic eruptions. The only phenonomen with the force needed to do it.
The "junk scientists" are aided in their fraud by a media with a low understanding of science. If someone takes issue with the "conventional wisdom" about the effects of human activity on the climate and environment, then one becomes the 21st Century version of Galilleo disagreeing with the Church on the nature of the universe. In short, you're a heretic! And the "priesthood" of the climate change crowd are really nothing more than the 21st Century version of Luddites. Folks who fear and mistrust modern machinery and have the collosal arrogance to think that humans can reverse or ameloriate cyclical climate change.
Of course there is global warming. There's always global warming. A large nuclear fusion reactor sits over 90 million miles from the earth. It's called the Sun. It's even produced melting of the ice caps on Mars. And that planet doesn't have one fossil fuel-burning industrial plant on it!

It is probably that over the years, and all the factories that spew out all that smoke. The cars we drive. Drilling into the ground and taking out whatever people want to, pollution, landfills, chemical and oil spills, and etc. etc. and etc.....for all the years man has been taking away from and adding to this "borrowed" planet.....not just one or two things....Man has altered mother nature, period......
If you took a clear plastic cup, and filled it with sand, then poked a hole in it halfway down and let the sand run out, what would the top layer look like...it would sink in, just like sink holes yes?.....so what does that tell everyone by constantly drilling into the Earth, and cutting down trees by the thousands, that this planet wasn't put here for us to take from it in that way.......
American Indian folklore, "take what you need, and leave the rest the way you found it".....
Man is not going to do that....Too greedy, in this take take society now......
Disasters like Katrina are probably more to come unfortunatelly, then it'll be too late......
One town in Tennessee ran out of water.!!!
We take for granted it'll just be there when we need it......
Time for lawmakers and environmentalists, to start getting their act together....
Instead of trillions of dollars sending rocket ships into space, who KNOWS what that does to our ozone layer, they better focus on trying to fix what they have screwed up!!!!
