Didn't we ban R-12 (CFC refrigerant) because it REDUCED ozone? I think these BS studies are just more welfare for "scientists" Then a bunch of stupid laws will be made up just to push America further down the path to being a third world country.

Yeah grass! By the way, I believe in nukes and fuel cells but hydrogen generated by nukes feeding fuel cells will only be about 30% efficient end to end. That ought to heat up the atmosphere!

All of this other dabbling in energy efficient "green" technologies other than the ones I mentioned (biofuel, wind, etc.) is a waste of time and effort. Let's invest some serious money in nuclear and hydrogen fuel sells and get on with a REAL solution to carbon emissions.
