Who is damaging the ozone layer?
CFC's are damaging the ozone layer. They react with it to deplete the layer.
Why are people damaging the ozone layer?
People are damaging the ozone layer. It is because of the usage of CFC's.
How do you increase the ozone layer by spreading co2?
Carbon dioxide, CO2, has very little to do with the ozone layer. The ozone layer will repair itself if we stop damaging it, which we have, by banning CFCs, chlorofluorocarbon gases, the chlorine of which was destroying the ozone molecules. Scientists hope the ozone layer will be completely restored by 2060.
Which molecules are affecting ozone layer?
The CFC molecules affect ozone layer. These molecules react with ozone to deplete it.

What is the stratosphere made out of?
The stratosphere consists of a layer of ozone molecules. These molecules form a layer known as ozone layer.
What prevents damaging amounts of UV?
The damaging amounts of UV are submitted from sun. These are prevented by the ozone layer.
What type of molecules can damage the ozone layer?
The molecules that damage the ozone layer are chlorine molecules. These molecules are the main destructive reason behind depletion.
