Why does a hole in the ozone layer go over antarctica?
The "hole" in the ozone layer is actually an ozon breach. An ozone breach occurs when CFC's are released into the air. CFC contains chlorine and chlorine reacts with oxygen to form chlorine monoxide and as you may know, the ozone layer is made up of 3 particles of oxygen. When chlorine reacts with oxygen, it takes away 1 particle of oxygen and turns ozones into pure oxygen (O2). This will sink back down into the troposphere and therefore, depleting the ozon layer.
