The hole in the ozone layer is a natural, repeating occurence. Ozone decays both naturally, and when forced by contaminants. So it takes UV-C from the Sun to make / replenish the ozone layer. The pole that is having winter, gets no UV-C. So the size of the hole tells us the average health of the ozone layer. Ozone is a greenhouse gas. So when ozone is depleted, or under the ozone hole, it is somewhat easier to radiate heat to the background temperature of 3 K. Only water vapor (in our atmosphere) will be dominant over this effect. The hole in the ozone will soon start to form now (2009May), but when it is over Antarctica, it would create new ice, lowering the sea level, and causing previously dry place to be evn dryer occasionally. It also lets in harmful UV-B rays that harm the planet and the animals on it. It causes the planet to super cool if there is a HUGE hole but that wont happen.

What chemical caused damage to the ozone layer over Antarctica?
The chemical that cause ozone hole over antarctica is CFC. Chlorofluorocarbons are the ones that contain chlorine which deplete ozone layer.
What have humans done to damage the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is damaged over the poles. It is due to the low temperature.
Where did the ozone layer get a hole in it?
i think it is started by pollution caused by the human race
Could the nuclear bomb caused a hole in the ozone layer?
Yes, it could. The gases released could make a hole in ozone layer.
In 1985 a hole in the ...was discovered over Antarctica.?
yes, and it was the "antarctic ozone hole"ozone layer
What damage is being caused by having this hole in the ozone layer?
skin cancer damage to crops and animals
What is meant by the hole int the ozone layer?
The thinning of ozone layer is ozone hole. It is caused by ODS.
What damage was caused by the whole in the ozone layer?
Ozone hole cause CFC to pass through. These are fatal rays of the sun.
What chemical caused damage to the ozone layer over Antarctica?
The chemical that cause ozone hole over antarctica is CFC. Chlorofluorocarbons are the ones that contain chlorine which deplete ozone layer.
What type of chemical pollution caused the hole in the ozone layer?
CFC's caused hole in ozone. They react with ozone and deplete it.
What is ment by ozone hole?
The thinning of ozone layer is termed as ozone hole. It is caused by CFC's.
How did the hole in the ozone layer come about?
The ozone in hole is caused by CFC's. It reacts with ozone and deplete it.
What is the holes in the ozone layer?
The thinning of ozone layer is called the ozone hole. IT is caused due to CFC's.
What have humans done to damage the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is damaged over the poles. It is due to the low temperature.
What is hole in the ozone layer?
The hole in the ozone layer is the falling of the concentration of the ozone layer below a certain concentration. It is caused by various man made and natural processes.
Where did the ozone layer get a hole in it?
i think it is started by pollution caused by the human race
What is the present thinning ozone layer commonly referred to as the ozone hole over the antarctic?
Ozone hole is referred as low concentration of ozone layer. It is caused over Antarctic.
