How did we harm the ozone layer?
Wee harmed the ozone layer by using intensive CFC's. These CFC's actually destroyed huge amount of ozone.
How do you get rid of cfcs?
By using HFCs ,that is , hydroflourocarbon.
Can you suggest ways to reduce the amount of CFC in the atmosphere and recover the ozone layer?
To reduce CFC's stop using some products. These are deodorants, spray cans, aerosols etc.
Why is an ozone hole formed only above and not over developed countries that emit a lot of cfc's?
Ozone hole is formed only at poles. It is because the CFC's are carried by westerly winds towards the poles.
How does humans cause ozone depletion?
# Dumping water vapor and consuming oxygen at high altitudes (aircraft). # Dumping CFCs to atmosphere (still in the air since the early 1900s, older appliances, third-world countries).
Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) emissions are still increasing?
Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) emissions are still increasing.
What still needs done to the ozone layer?
Ozone needs to be repaired. For this we need to stop using CFC's.
When were CFCs banned?
The Montreal protocol bans CFC's from modern countries and was signed on Sept. 16, 1987. Is was still being made and used as of this year in some countries.
What are people doing that affects the ozone?
they are using plastic bags at markets and using spray cans littering a lot of things
When CFC is damaging the ozone layer what are they now using instead of the chlorofluorocarbon?
CFC's are banned as they cause ozone depletion. Other than that, now they are using hydro chlorofluorocarbons.
Is the ozone protection working?
Yes, it is. Countries have decided to ban CFC's.
How are humans causing ozone depletion?
Humans are causing ozone depletion by using CFC's. These CFC's react with ozone to deplete it.
What is the term for gases produced by aerosols and manufacturing that destroys earth ozone layer?
chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) "ozone depleting substances" are more generic, since other chlorine- and bromine-containing molecules, which are produced by Man, have been found "up there" too. Note that CFCs are not "produced by aerosols", but were intentionally manufactured for the purposes of refrigerant and propellant. Not too many countries are still making / using CFCs.
What will happen if cfc was still used today?
the hole will get bigger
How did we harm the ozone layer?
Wee harmed the ozone layer by using intensive CFC's. These CFC's actually destroyed huge amount of ozone.
What can government and big businesses do to stop climate change?
Government can take a ban on CFC's. Business men can stop using CFC's in industry.
What are countries doing to prevent or reduce depletion of the ozone layer?
Countries are taking various measures. Banning CFC is one of them.
