Climate scientist says 2/3rds of the world is under an effective 'death sentence' because of global warming
Dr. Deborah Brosnan, a climate and ocean scientist, predicts that Earth could eventually become uninhabitable for humans given the grave state of the planet

Anyone else notice the amusing edit fail?
This is not enough according to Dr. Brosnan, who gave a laundry list of steps the world could take to save the ozone layer
Hey doc, wrong environmental crisis. We already took steps to save the ozone layer
You say that but the ozone layer hole actually started to grow again in the past few years.
probably because we stopped giving a fuck
It grows and closes seasonally. It's because it needs solar radiation to do the chemical reaction and stuff just builds up in the winter and then makes a big hole in the summer.
Wasn't that because of Starlink satellites?
The CFC that caused the issue in the first place will take a long time to completely disappear. Also we haven't completely stopped using them, and apparently since 2012, the CFC production started to increase again in Asia.
It also seems that the Tonga eruption played a role in the expansion.
I heard Starlink satellites could play a role, but it's probably minuscule compared to what CFCs can do.

Thank you
I did not.
No! This isn’t good enough, I want a cookie dam it!
