Do rockets put a hole in the ozone layer?

It's just gas, much like the rest of the atmosphere, so a rocket just pushes right through it. You know how clouds block sunlight, and if they are thick enough, you can't see the Sun anymore and it is pretty dark? Airplanes can fly through those clouds. The ozone layer is like those clouds, only it doesn't block visible light... and it is very thin. Ozone just blocks UV-B and more energetic light, protecting Earth's surface.

Ozone layer depletion cfc's in global warmng?

Global Warming has nothing to do with the Ozone layer. Ozone is a chemical, O3 ,that stops most of the UV radiation from the sum from getting to the earth's surface. Chloro-fluoro carbons- CFC's are chemicals that were used in cooling systems and complex fire extinguishers, as well as aerosols. When scientists did research in the 1970's etc, they worked out that CFC's, such as Freon, chlorotrifluoromethane, CClF3, break ozone into oxygen and "oxygen radicals", that react with the CFC. This creates a hole in the ozone layer. A lack of ozone doesn't affect global warming. Instead, the CFC's themselves are potent greenhouse gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect and global warming.


How ozone layer can be damaged?

the amount of ozone in the atmosphere began to drop sharply in the 1980s . this decrease has been linked to synthetic chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons which are used in refrigerants and in fire extinguisher's .
