Can Professor Stott see any scenario where we can succeed in carrying out the reductions over the next ten to 20 years globally and where there would be an acceleration of a cooling down process as opposed to a slowdown of a heating up process? Professor Stott can correct me if I am wrong but it would be similar to the hole in the ozone 30 years ago. When CFCs were banned, the hole started to close up. Is there any evidence based around that or anything on the flip side?
