CFC's are synthetic chemicals produced by man. They react with ozone to deplete it.
CFCs
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are the main cause of ozone layer depletion. When released into the atmosphere, CFCs break down ozone molecules, which leads to a thinning of the ozone layer and increased exposure to harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
Substances known as CFCs cause that.
CFC's react with ozone to cause depletion. they decompose the ozone layer.
Pollution. LOTS of pollution. CFCs primarily. But pollutants are now the main cause of ozone holes as CFCs have been outlawed.
Methane, carbon dioxide, CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons).
CFC's are compounds which cause ozone depletion. They decompose ozone.
The chlorine in CFCs causes a breakdown of the ozone layer, resulting in more skin problems from increased ultraviolet light.
No. CFC's are chlorofluorocarbons and cause damage to ozone (O3).
Of itself no, but in the compound CO2 yes.
Refrigerators and air conditioners are common appliances that can contribute to an increase in CFCs in the atmosphere. CFCs are used as refrigerants in these appliances and can be emitted into the atmosphere if not properly contained or disposed of.
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), halons, and certain types of hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) are human-made chemicals that cause ozone depletion. When these substances are released into the atmosphere, they break down and release chlorine and bromine atoms, which then destroy ozone molecules in the stratosphere.
