Ozone and climate scientists met in Washington, D.C. to discuss whether the history of stratospheric ozone protection offered a useful case study about how to catalyze global action on carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Their simple answer: No. Ozone-damaging chlorofluorocarbons - or CFCs - represented a special case. Such swift global action following recognition of a scientific threat is unlikely to be witnessed again. [Source: ScienceNews]
