  Well it’s understandable, the concept of being able to actually do something about the environment on a world scale instead of just blindly pretending it’s not a thing until it kills us all is a bit hard to believe for younger generations for obvious reasons.

    I don’t understand, why would it sound implausible? Isn’t that what governments are FOR?

        I know, the government is bad, so if we put a bad man in charge it’ll be a double negative and become good, right?

  I think the only reason it worked was because there were cheaper alternatives to CFCs already available. So it didn’t cost them money.
