The gas responsible for ozone depletion is CFC. It reacts with ozone to deplete it.
CFC's are responsible for ozone depletion. They react with ozone to deplete it.
See "What is causing the depletion of the ozone layer?" in the "Related questions" section below.
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are the main gases responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer. When released into the atmosphere, CFCs break down under the influence of sunlight and release chlorine atoms, which can then catalyze the destruction of ozone molecules.
CFC gases which are pollutants are responsible for the depletion of ozone layer. CFC convert ozone to oxygen and make it useless for the absorption of UV radiation.
Ozone gas is found in the ozone layer. It is depleted by CFC's.

CFC's are major cause of ozone depletion. They react with ozone to deplete it.
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are a group of gases responsible for destroying the ozone layer. When released into the atmosphere, CFCs break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere, leading to thinning of the ozone layer. This thinning allows more harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun to reach the Earth's surface.
Depletion of the ozone layer refers to a thinning of the ozone gas in the Earth's stratosphere. This thinning allows more ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun to reach the Earth's surface, which can lead to increased risks of skin cancer, cataracts, and other health and environmental issues. Actions that release chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) into the atmosphere are the main cause of ozone layer depletion.
Various culprits are there. CFC's are on the top.
Depletion OZONE layer : -Ozone(o3)gas resembling oxygen present in the upper atmosphere, acting as protective layer saving the life of earth from the dreadful effects of UV rays from the outer atmosphere.The Ozone layer is depleted by the action of gases such as chlorofluro carbons(ferons) led into the atmosphere. The gases used generally as refrigerants, aircrafts etc., the depletion of Ozone is reffered as "Holes of OZONE Layer'.
Yes. People developed chemicals such as CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) for use in refrigerators and as a propellant gas in aerosols. These CFCs rose high into the atmosphere and caused damage to the ozone layer. the use of CFCs has since been banned and the ozone layer is slowly recovering. Hopefully.
