Good news: the ozone hole is closing, due to a 1987 international agreement that banned the use of ozone-destroying chemicals. Even better news: this is good for global warming too, since chloroflurocarbons (CFCs?which were once used in air conditioners, refrigerators and as propellants in some cleaning products) are also major greenhouse gases.

There is a clear potential here for misuse here?by big business or perhaps for even more subtle purposes.

Employees of the Fish & Wildlife Service have been told not to discuss global warming at upcoming international meetings in Norway and Russia. Since at least one of these meetings concerns how polar bears are being affected by the changing climate, this is going to be hard to do. Employees of NASA have been given the same directive.

Around a year ago, Michael Griffin, the NASA administrator, sent this directive to 12 other agencies as well, with the suggestion that they also follow this policy.
