One set of candidate molecules was identified and being ozone depleters, and those molecules were banned in an agreement between all first-world countries. The repercussions of changing away from these very stable compounds, compounds that *only* can decay in the ozone layer, are non-trivial and on-going. Aircraft emissions of sulfur were identified as posing a danger to the ozone layer, and sulfur was largely removed from the fuel they burn. Whether or not it was the sulfur, or the water vapor they (still) emit, we don't know for sure. One particular aircraft that flies much higher / faster than the rest, the Concorde, was stopped from flying (although not for this reason). The SR-71 also was retired. And satellites that have a one-time hit on the ozone are relied on for the necessary surveillance to keep the control-freaks in office happier.

What steps have been taken to prevent ozone layer depletion?
The steps taken to control ozone depletion is the reduction of CFC's. These CFC's are ozone depleting substances which react with ozone present in the ozone layer and decompose it to form the ozone hole.
When does the ozone depletion process begin?
Ozone depletion in ongoing, and has been since the 1700s. Some processes require visible light (so "daytime"), some do not ("anytime").
What is ozone depletion caused by?
Ozone depletion is caused by the Ozone Depleting Substances(ODS) which are man-made chemicals and stay in the stratosphere causing the rate of depletion of ozone greater than its rate of formation.
What did government did for ozone depletion?
The government is taking measures for ozone layer. For it, CFC's have been banned.
How do you know that chemicals are causing the problem of ozone depletion?
This has been confirmed by the people performing experiments. CFC's cause depletion.
What has been dont to prevent the ozone layer from getting damaged?
To prevent ozone depletion many steps are taken. It is treated by afforestation.
What steps have been taken to prevent ozone layer depletion?
The steps taken to control ozone depletion is the reduction of CFC's. These CFC's are ozone depleting substances which react with ozone present in the ozone layer and decompose it to form the ozone hole.
What are the impact in the global community of ozone layer depletion?
Global community has been helping in each way to prevent the ozone layer depletion. They have also taken all the mandatory steps.
Ozone depletion has been cause by?
The Chlorine in the CFC is the element that causes ozone depletion
What are some of the places in the world today that ozone depletion has been evident?
the ozone depletion has been evident at the poles. Antarctica has the largest ozone hole.
What substance is thought to cause the depletion of earth's ozone shield.what has been done to solve this problem?
CFC's are responsible for depletion of ozone. They react with ozone to deplete it.
When does the ozone depletion process begin?
Ozone depletion in ongoing, and has been since the 1700s. Some processes require visible light (so "daytime"), some do not ("anytime").
What is ozone depletion caused by?
Ozone depletion is caused by the Ozone Depleting Substances(ODS) which are man-made chemicals and stay in the stratosphere causing the rate of depletion of ozone greater than its rate of formation.
Why did ozone layer depletion occur in Antarctica?
It is because ozone depletion takes place in cold regions. Antarctica is the one place where ozone hole has been noticed.
What are consequences of ozone depletion and reformed measures to combat this process?
Ozone depletion causes UV to enter the earth. To stop it, CFC's have been banned.
What is one cause of ozone depletion and whata has bee n done to reverse it?
CFC's is one cause. It has been banned to curb ozone depletion.
How much damage has been caused by the ozone depletion?
much
