Green Leaf Report

I just read an interesting article about how the ozone will be whole again in 2065, only 15 years after originally predicted.  But I didn’t read that this takes into account increasing pollution from an increasing population.  As air conditioners are one of the sources of CFCs that deplete the ozone layer, and the heat and population are increasing, then the use of ACs will rise and CFC pollution should increase.  I’d like to see this computer model; there are so many variables involved, I bet we could come up with a different answer just by changing a few assumptions.
