Ironically, air conditioning could be the thing fueling future global warming

This is some irony. What's more, it seems like it sets up a feedback loop, more global warming means more need for ac, which means ...

... a perpetual and infinite supply of horse manure from the mass media I guess. Let history always be our teacher.

So Freon is a greenhouse gas?

I have no idea. As you probably saw, I was just quoting some media whore crap. You´ll have to ask them - I guess. Or the psychos that give them the script.

Freon is a CFC. It is purported that CFCs break apart the ozone layer, but more importantly they continue to react and do so over and over instead of being depleted. While IMO global warming is a red herring, I do believe we are damaging our ozone layer, and depleting it would be bad (like we can't go outside with exposed skin bad).

Some time back there were some scientific developments that cast doubt on the old assumed "CFC breakdown effects" and which in turn throw into doubt the entire "ozone hole" arguments. But it's interesting that once government gains control of an area or a subject matter, they don't let go.

Same with the "asbestos threat." And many other examples.
