Australia and New Zealand have the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, according to the largest international melanoma foundation, the Texas-based AIM at Melanoma. Both countries have more than double the incidence rates found in North America.

Chloroflorocarbons, also known as CFCs, are thankfully declining rapidly, although they have not been completely phased out yet. It appears that the weight of public outrage has caused China to crack down on manufacturers who recently started using them again.

The silver lining of melting poles due to dramatically warmer average temperatures- especially in winter- is that CFCs are more active the colder the atmosphere is. An ice free Arctic will reduce the risk of UV related disease!

Excess UV doesn't just cause skin cancer, it's also the cause of macular degeneration.

Just because you have seen the Empire Strikes Back 1,118 times doesn't prove your intelligence or that space exist or of a spinning ball earth. If you had a basic knowledge of math and physics you would know that this is a impossibility. You were taught science by Steven Spielberg. :lol: Good God you are DAF :dunce::dunce:

Magical strawman thinking.

SURPRISE !!! :hug:Take a tropical continent and populate it with fair skin northern europeans. Australia began as a British penal colony in the late 1700's. End of discussion mate.

Unburnt methane is the number one greenhouse gas produced by oil/gas production and livestock. That's not going to change anytime soon because there are a lot of fat meat eating people driving around in big SUV's. The Earth also naturally produces unburnt methane. It even leaks out from the bottom of the ocean. It's debatable whether it is harmful because the earth has a way of balancing itself out. States particularly in the southeast could see expanded growing seasons due to global warming. It's gonna be great don't worry. bongsmilie

you know what? don't give a fuck.....you've ruined your opinion here...everything you say should be prefaced with "the following is presented by a sub-moronic pinhead who argues that the earth is flat, the moon is a night light for god, and 2 mile tall giants once lived with men...read it at your own risk".......
i'm not even reading what you wrote, just un-ignored you long enough to quote the fucking stupidity......i don't need to read what you wrote. i know already it's stupid, pointless, wrong, misinformed, misinterpreted, and just fucking ignorant....i'm just tired of having to read other people's replies to your idiocy....do us all a favor and FUCK OFF to another website...or a bowling alley...or w/e....just fuck off

It's harmful, especially in light of all the CO² already emitted.

Methane is some 30 to 80 times more effective as a greenhouse gas than CO².

It breaks down in the atmosphere over about 30 years- into carbon dioxide.

There's a huge amount of methane hydrates in the Arctic Ocean, which is thawing at a record pace now and will be ice free in summer literally any year now.

If we like the climate we have we better pull out all the stops NOW to keep things from getting any warmer.

I'm beginning to think that the only way to put a stop to global warming is nuclear winter style, with such a war or volcano. Obviously, the consequences of such an event would be catastrophic on many levels.

there are too many countries whose governments refuse to admit "global warming" is real...they argue semantics while the sea level rises...right now i don't think you could get enough of them doing anything to make it effective on a global scale....and what would we be able to do? setting off nuclear explosions seems a very very poor choice, and probably not very effective on a global scale. triggering volcanoes seems to be equally risky and ineffective. if you somehow set one off big enough to eject enough material to lower temperatures, it would cause incredible damage locally, and agriculture would suffer for years. i just really don't think we can do a damn thing except try to stop contributing to the problem, and put efforts into dealing with it in the future.

Strange, we're the only country to pull out of the Paris Climate Accord?

yeah....and we shouldn't have....
how many of the countries that have ratified it are actually doing anything meaningful? maybe a dozen...the rest are paying lip service while doing business as usual....
what's the plan to slow down global warming? how many of those countries in the Paris accord would be willing to set off nuclear devices? how many would be willing to sanction experiments with volcanoes?...how long would it take for the committee to reach a quorum on what day of the week to meet? while sea levels rise and drown them as they argue....¿

does not seem like a good alternative to the present problem.....

Big countries have made solid strides. China has dramatically reduced its building program of coal fired power plants, for example.

Of course more needs to be done. That said, if all nations make a commitment and see the others making good on theirs, then trust in the process is built and more agreements can be made with a reasonable expectation of mutual performance.

Trump has trashed that whole paradigm and it remains to be seen if America can figure out how to make amends and regain some semblance of credibility.
