Global Warming and Energy

Smallest ozone hole over Antarctica in a decade. It has nothing to do with CFCs. This was understood as a pseudo-scientific hoax from Al Gore in 1994 when freon was banned.

"Even though the theory that CFCs are destroying the earth's ozone layer is seriously flawed, it is worthwhile asking how much ultraviolet radiation is reaching the earth's surface compared to the past. Surely, if the earth's oxygen/ozone protective shield against ultraviolet radiation is being compromised — whether due to CFCs alone or some combination of natural and/or man-made phenomena — more ultraviolet radiation should be reaching the earth's surface. And yet, as Dr. Ray pointed out, citing studies by such scientific organizations as the National Center for Atmospheric Research and the National Cancer Institute, "ultraviolet radiation levels at the earth's surface are going down, not up." This simple fact speaks volumes, which perhaps explains why it has been all but ignored by the major media."

Apparently that's changed in the last decade of unusually quiet solar cycle 24.

Global warming has stalled according to NOAA's standard.

"The simulations rule out (at the 95% level) zero trends for intervals of 15 yr or more, suggesting that an observed absence of warming of this duration is needed to create a discrepancy with the expected present-day warming rate."

Done and falsified.
