Thirty years ago, scientists reported a hole in the ozone layer \u201cthe size of North America\u201d which turned out to the be the biggest environmental crisis ever seen. The culprit was CFCs, prevalent in billions of dollars worth of products like refrigeration and air-conditioning products that had revolutionized the American way of life. Doctors forecast skyrocketing rates of cancer. The stakes were \u201clife as we know it.\u201d But business remained bitterly opposed and policiticians were initially slow to act. For the first time in film, Shattered Sky goes inside the ozone crisis to explore how America led the world to a solution. It inspires viewers toward the same can-do spirit on climate change today.<\/p>\n
