Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the concern is crop production, per se. Wasn't the issue that g.w. would raise crop lines, with the ultimate doomsday prediction being that our fly-over state crop resources would ultimately leave us for Canada....? Not certain, just speculating.

Yes, if the temperature rose dramatically, climate belts would shift. No big problem, really (even though I believe it wouldn't happen). The hundreds of millions of acres of tundra would simply become arable land, which would increase crop production. The United States would have to plant crops that were more suitable for a warmer climate, is all. Something like 60 miles per degree. The most pro-global warming-extremist scientists predict a 10 degree rise in Farenheit. What's that. 600 miles? :/
Most of America's climatologists work for the government or work in universities (which are predominantly liberal) I believe. I'll do my best to find the article, even though I didn't find it online before. :/
Regarding the "ozone hole", there's also mass speculation regarding the topic. Seemingly, when they first started monitoring ozone, the hole was already there. I'll provide links to necessary information tomorrow.
