Yes bush fires to affect the ozone layer, in a negative way. Combustion of organic material can release chloromethane. 15% of the chlorine-containing compounds in the stratosphere (where the ozone layer is) are chloromethane, not all of which are sourced by burning organic matter. This gas is estimated to produce about 17% of the depletion due to chlorine-containing compounds.
