Some believe that they have found that the ozone layer is being damaged, reported it.
Politicians have then pushed and been a pain-in-the-tush to make sure some candidate chemicals were banned while scientists continue to prove their theory.
They helped kill the Concorde, which was shown to damage the ozone layer.
(Not true! The Concord flight was discontinued due to age of the aircraft and a major incident killing everyone on board due to their age.)
Most of them are implementing personal choices that reduce their contributions to ozone layer depletion.
Most Science experts agree that the Ozone layer's thinning is only at the poles and only during their winter months. They realize that the vast bulk, if not all, of the thinning is natural and due to a lack of sunlight. The banning of chemicals that are heavier then air to help a portion of our atmosphere that is very high is actually a very hard sell. Logic and honesty can not be used. Items heavier then air seldom fly to levels of 50,000 feet.
They also realize that the greatest thinning (thus the largest hole) happened in the 1830's which was well before cfc's were in use. We know that this "hole" is caused by a lack of sunlight in the affected areas, not cfc's.

∙ 12y agoThe Montreal protocol was an agreement in the 1970s when all countries agreed to phase out the use of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Since then the levels of these ozone-destroying chemicals have been decreasing. Scientists hope the ozone layer will have recovered by 2060.

In 1985 a hole in the ...was discovered over Antarctica.?
yes, and it was the "antarctic ozone hole"ozone layer
Why is threre a hole in the ozone layer?
The hole in ozone layer is the thinning of layer of ozone. It is because of the CFC's released by humans.
Which layer of the atmosphere is the ozone hole phenomenon found?
The ozone hole is found in the same layer as ozone layer. It is found in stratosphere.
What Hole is in the ozone layer?
There is not actually a hole in the ozone layer. The ozone has been reduced below some limit.
What gases form a hole in the ozone layer?
The CFC's form a hole in ozone layer. They are highly reactive with ozone.
What can be done to repair the hole in the ozone layer?
In order to repair the ozone layer, we must decrease the use of ozone depleting substances. These are the ones containing CFC's which deplete the ozone layer.
Whatcan the world do help repair the hole in the ozone layer?
World can help in a lot of ways. We can plant trees together.
The postulate that the hole in the ozone layer will repair itself is ridiculous?
assumption
Hole in UV layer?
There is no hole in UV but in ozone layer. And the hole in ozone layer is actually the thinning of the layer.
In 1985 a hole in the ...was discovered over Antarctica.?
yes, and it was the "antarctic ozone hole"ozone layer
How do you mend the hole in the ozone layer?
See "Can the hole in the Ozone layer be fixed?"
Why is threre a hole in the ozone layer?
The hole in ozone layer is the thinning of layer of ozone. It is because of the CFC's released by humans.
What is the term ozone hole?
a hole in the ozone layer.
Ozone layer hole?
Ozone layer hole is the low concentration of ozone. It is present in both hemisphere.
What is meant by the hole int the ozone layer?
The thinning of ozone layer is ozone hole. It is caused by ODS.
What is meant by the hole in the ozone layer what role does CFCs have in it?
The thinning of ozone layer is called as ozone hole. CFC's are the ones that create the ozone hole.
Which layer of the atmosphere is the ozone hole phenomenon found?
The ozone hole is found in the same layer as ozone layer. It is found in stratosphere.
