While it is more financially and politically profitable to ignore the problems regarding polution, then nothing will get done.

Too many people in power give ‘lip servoce’ to what’s happening to our planet.

We know every country must join and stop the pollution. I don’t know about mass production of oxygen or if it would even help the damage being done to the ozone.

Here is what air is made of:

Nitrogen N2 78.084 %

Oxygen O2 20.9476 %

Argon Ar 0.934 %

Carbon Dioxide CO2 0.0314 %

Neon Ne 0.001818 %

Methane CH4 0.0002 %

Helium He 0.000524 %

Krypton Kr 0.000114 %

Hydrogen H2 0.00005 %

Xenon Xe 0.0000087 %

You pose an interesting question, but the answer is much more complicated.
As you can see, the air you breathe is mostly Nitrogen.
What we need to do as a world community, not the US, is to be more conscious of how we use
our natural resources, and how to replenish those that we deplete.
Good piece.
Thanks,
Clay

Don’t forget that George W Bush was loathe to sign any international ‘green’ policies when he was in power!

I think the issue of global warming should be handled by the whole world not just America. And America is still in financial crisis right now.

I think the damage to the ozone layer is irreparable but we can lessen at least the damage by our own simple way of not adding harmful elements in the atmosphere.
