Antarctic Ozone Hole Leveling Off 353
twistedfuck writes: "An Irish Time article reports that the size of the hole in the antartican ozone layer is levelling off and should begin reducing in size. It seems like it should be welcome news but it is tempered by the fact that more UV radiation will reach the southern hemisphere this year because the hole will persist longer. Unfortunately I can not find any details regarding the NOAA report on their website."

thats because new zealand does not have the smog blocking the sun like the US has.
take their smog away and they'd have more trouble than they currently do.
