In 25 years of following this issue closely I have never heard anyone insist that the ozone issue is about climate change or vice versa. Whether you say so or not it is simply not part of the general discussion on climate change. Period.
I didn't bring up the ozone layer, you did. I am avoiding it and you because I don't have time to run around in circles with you about it. Period.

Well, now you did heard that. Ozone layer issue is by definition about climate change as it's part of climate. I don't know what you mean by catastrophic, as no such results are presented to be happen. Of course depends what you mean by catastrophic, but as millions of people already starve to death every year and we don't call that catastrophic, catastrophic must mean more like apocalyptical.
But, we spend much more money to prevent much less significant issues, so in terms of logic, avoiding negative impact to climate is money well spent. For example US spends huge amounts of money to prevent few US citizens from dying in the hands of terrorists or what ever. You would save more lives by letting those terrorists to kill the few guys and spending the money more wisely.
