Which atom of the CFC molecule causes ozone depletion?

The chlorine molecule destroys the ozone. CFCs were released at ground level during the second half of the twentieth century. Ten years later global winds had spread them around the world and up to the lower stratosphere where the ozone layer is. A combination of forces splits the chlorine from the CFC and it destroys an ozone molecule. The chlorine survives and goes on to find another victim. These CFCs remain in the atmosphere fro 50 to 75 years, so scientists are hoping that by 2060 the ozone layer will have repaired itself.
