Default Cut-price Chinese home insulation is being blamed for a massiverise in emissions of a gas, highly damaging to the Earth's protective ozonelayer.

"China's polyurethane foam makes up about one-third of global
production, so if they are predominantly using an ozone-depleting
substance it will set back the closing of the ozone hole by a decade or
more. "

Not to worry. Burford has determined that it's a hoax along with global
warming.

In the '80s I worked for a company that made foam picnic plates, the
foam clamshells for McDonald burgers, and other foam products. We bought
R-12 (CFC12) by the railcar tanker. It did make an excellent blowing agent.

CO2, or rather the lack of it, is more important.

No beer, no crumpets, and no ice cream. You Brits are so screwed. Wanna
buy some CO2?
