If the Ozone layer dissolves much further, the suns heat could kill us all, which is why we should at least try to stop it, or at least slow it down.

The planet has warmed up and cooled done repeatedly throughout it's entire 4.8 billion year history without any form of intervention by life so what's to say it won't start cooling down by itself? Also the disaster scenarios are all exagerated to scare people.
Interesting thing to note, back in around 2000 when this started to really take off. Scientists said we had 10 years to save the planet otherwise it would be irreperably damaged. Just a couple of weeks back guess what a scientist said? 'We have 10 years to save the planet' Now if the original calculations were correct then surely we only have 1 year left. Wait governements want to milk this for all it's worth so saying that keeps the option of 'green' taxes available.
