The truth is that we are guests on this planet and we have been here long enough to gauge what the weather is really like. The weather is changing. It could be because we are doing some damage, or it could just be something that happens every few one hundred years or so.
The ozone layer is a perfect example. Ten years ago the story was we caused the ozone layer to disappear and that we were all gonna die. Don't tell me the meager actions we took fixed the problem so quickly. This was all just part of Eath's cycle and we had nothing to do with it.
There will always be people claiming gloom and doom. I'm not buying into it.
What I will buy into is the fact that oil is drying up. I'm trying to figure out what we'll do thirty years from now when we cannot make gasoline. Life as we know it will change radically overnight.

No offense, but you might want to do a little more research on the ozone and how it "fixed itself". The steps took were not "measely", and it was not 10 years ago, try almost 20. The Ozone Protection Act of 1989.
You are, however, correct, the ozone layer is a perfect example, an example of how changes will & can fix the problem.
