Is the hole in the ozone layer the same as global warming?

Yes, they are very similar. Ozone depletion is caused by man (CFCs), and is the overall thinning of the ozone.

The hole appears over the Antarctic because ozone needs sunlight to form and the dark and cold Antarctic winters (much colder than Arctic winters) form ideal conditions for ozone depletion and thinning.
