I heard from my great uncle that they actually take the pollen of daisies, which is highly acidic. In return, it kills the ozone in that particular layer. Making it not called the "ozone layer" more or less the "Rectal gland layer"
The government is using various method to minimize the ozone depletion. Motreal Protocol is one such protocol. It states the protection of ozone layer.
The ozone depletion is the lowering of ozone molecules. It is the depletion of the molecules due to the depleting substances used. Freons are one such depleting substances.
Ozone depletion is the process where ozone holes are created in the ozone layer. It is caused due to the action of chloro-floro-carbons on the ozone molecule to break it down to oxygen.
HCFC's are said as an alternates to CFC's. They are the ones that do not cause ozone depletion.
See "What can we do to protect the ozone layer?"
CFC's used in refrigeration are main cause of ozone depletion. This refers to the destruction of ozone.
Ozone is depleting because. 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. So, we can stop using CFC gases which are used in refrigerants and air conditioners.
The "Antarctic Hole" commonly refers to the ozone hole that forms over Antarctica. It is a region in the Earth's stratosphere where the concentration of ozone is significantly depleted. This depletion is primarily caused by the presence of certain chemicals, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which were widely used in refrigerants and aerosol propellants. Efforts have been made to reduce the production and emission of these chemicals in order to protect the ozone layer and minimize the size of the Antarctic Hole.
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'.
See "What is causing the depletion of the ozone layer?" in the "Related questions" section below.
Not now. The CFCs that were used as aerosols in the 1980s are responsible for the depletion of the ozone layer. These have been phased out and scientists hope the ozone layer will have recovered by about 2060.
Chlorine is the element and CFC is the compound. They are built as refrigerating compounds. These compounds are used in AC's, Deodorants etc.The compound causing ozone depletion is CFC. They are chemicals of Fluorine. They form oxides with ozone.CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons).
In the 1970s humans released CFCs into the atmosphere. It was used as a gas in aerosol cans, refrigerators and air conditioners. Production of CFCs was phased out after the Montreal Protocol in 1989. Scientists hope the ozone layer will be repaired around 2050.
