I've always hated this comparison because the two problems are just not the same, at all. CFCs were nowhere near as ubiquitous as fossil hydrocarbons, and CFCs had an essentially drop-in replacement, which fossil fuels do not. There's no non-hydrocarbon fuel that we can just replace for coal, natural gas, gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, etc. None that I'm aware of, anyway.

Shame we haven't had an entire century to deal with the problem.

At least we're taking it seriously, and all agree that it's real.

You mean, listening to the science and actively working in tandem with that science works? Who knew?

Misleading post, it seems to imply that it helped significantly.
