Gods. What a dumb fuck.

The UN’s weather and climate agency said on Thursday there was no cause for alarm about a record-size hole this month in the ozone layer which shields life on Earth from the Sun, as it should shrink again.
The ozone hole that appears over Antarctica fluctuates in size, normally reaching its widest in the polar spring as extreme cold temperatures in the stratosphere and the return of sunlight unleash chlorine radicals that destroy ozone.
Last year, the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) said it detected the first sign of ozone recovery, largely thanks to a 1987 ban on gases that cause ozone depletion, but said it could be a decade before the hole begins shrinking.
This year, a colder than usual stratosphere widened the hole to a peak of 28.2 million square km (10.9 million square miles) on 2 October, bigger than Canada and Russia put together.

We have focused mainly on recent work in order to highlight the progress made to date, and to attempt an analysis of the complexity of both independent and interacting factors on terrestrial ecosystems in terms of UV radiation and other environmental constraints, including emerging evidence of the role of stratospheric ozone trends in affecting climate.
Ozone depletion, changed exposure to ultraviolet-B (UV-B, 280–315 nm) radiation, and climate change exert both individual and interactive effects on biological systems, with intricate feedbacks.1,2 Some of the key factors interacting with UV radiation that affect organism response are water availability, temperature, and nutrient availability. UV radiation has also been implicated as a contributor to global warming through its stimulation of volatile organic compounds from plants, plant litter and soils. Emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) from plant litter and soils may also contribute to global warming.3,4

During the course of research on the effects of UV radiation, much emphasis has been placed on the potential detrimental impacts on plants and ecosystems. However, the balance of recent evidence is shifting to show that while some detrimental effects do occur, UV radiation is also a key regulator of plant morphology and physiological, biochemical and genetic processes, and is important in animal and plant signalling. Following on from this line of investigation, it has also become apparent that UV radiation and climate variables can be usefully exploited for value-adding to, e.g., agricultural crops.8 The emerging concept, that agricultural2,9 plants can become more hardy through exposure to UV radiation, represents a marked shift in perspective.8,9 In addition, certain plants produce more medicinal compounds with exposure to UV radiation.10 The overall objective is to boost the quality and/or quantity of the yield, usually selectively, e.g. by making plants less prone to attack by pests and diseases. Concepts such as that of “eustress” are also relevant. Eustress is analogous to “priming” where a stress is imposed on plants to acclimate them and develop tolerance, which facilitates better growth when exposed to a more severe stress.9,11
Translation = How dare you insult Zeus!Well, the dumbest of our dumb fucks have made their ill informed and vacuous comments. In the meantime, the one poster that backed his opinion with facts just happens to be a moderate, if not a liberal. Just proves that saying, not all conservatives are stupid, but most stupid people are conservative.
Sad part is that the stupid people all denigrate education, and seem to believe that ignorance is a virtue.
Not once was man made anything addressed. They noted that all changes can be shown to be driven by solar output..

No, they didn't. You just fabricated that bit of fraud. It's what you do. It's all you do.
If you didn't fake it, point out to us the exact sentence where they specifically state depletion of the ozone layer can be explained by changes in solar output. We'll wait.
Obviously lacking in that extremely gay tirade was any support for your fraudulent claim. That's because you're a fraud who faked a crazy claim and hoped he wouldn't get called on it. But I did call you on it, so now you're flailing about hysterically.
And you have two little fraud supporters now, Owl and Weasel. Ain't that cute, a group of deniers all pushing fraud together. Warms the heart, it does, seeing such fraud-based friendship.
Now, if any of you three frauds can point out the sentence in that paper which says ozone depletion is based on solar influences, please do so, as it would demonstrate that you're not as fraudulent as you appear to be. But if you just are frauds who are upset about getting busted, continue your current tactics of gay rage and evasion.
Lets see what a few scientists have to say:

And once again you failed to read the paper and make wild ass accusations you can not support with any form of facts.. This is the bitter old woman we have come to expect..

And THIS is the lying, amoral, intellectually worthless sack of shit WE have come to expect. How about one of you Billy Bob worshippers help him out and find the sentence Mamooth has been asking for - the one thay states the ozone hole is produced by changes in solar output. You can fo ot. Give the man a hand.
