No. Carbon dioxide cannot be further ionized without more energy than ozone itself carries. However ozone is made by combining an oxygen molecule with an extra oxygen atom. CO2 can temporarily hold the oxygen atom until some other molecule comes along that can accept it. So CO2 may either help or hinder the *production*of ozone, depending on what other contaminants it encounters... and when.

How ozone layer is deplected?

The ozone layer is getting depleted because of the continues usage of CFCs. These are the chemicals which destroy ozone by reacting with and decomposing it into molecular oxygen and nascent oxygen.


Is carbon dioxide destroying the ozone layer?

Carbon dioxide is not destroying the ozone layer directly but its adverse effects can be seen on the ozone layer indirectly. Carbon dioxide leads to global warming which does not allow the heat to escape out because of which the temperature for the production of ozone is stopped. The rate of production is less than rate of depletion which causes ozone layer to deplete.
