Where is thinning of the ozone layer taking place?

In the ozone layer. Where the ozone is.


What is ozone thinning?

This is a thinning (by about 2/3, of the ozone over the Antarctic during the spring time, towards the end of the long winter night in the south pole. There is no actual hole in the layer. This has occurred for centuries, in fact the thinnest we know the layer has ever been is in 1858, before man started using cfc's. A similar thinning occurs, to a much smaller extent in the Arctic during the end of it's winter night also. The thinning is much smaller in the Arctic and NASA even reffers to this thin area as the "Dimple" due to the small size.

Can we fill in the ozone hole with a 'gas bomb'?

The lowest ozone concentration (the "hole") occurs where there is little / no UV-C to make ozone. If there is no UV-C, there is no UV-B for ozone to protect us from. The thinning of the ozone layer near the tropics is the problem, not the hole. Ozone decays rapidly, so the ozone layer would have to be bombed *a lot*. Which will require more fossil fuels be consumed to loft the ozone, which will place more humidity at the level of the ozone layer, which will in turn destroy more ozone. SO as one responder said: No, dude.
