Ozone is a naturally occurring greenhouse gas that helps keep the earth warm. Therefore the depletion of the ozone layer had a minor cooling effect on the world, although more than compensated for by the rise in carbon dioxide levels. Because the depletion was concentrated in the Antarctic region, this is believed to have contributed to altered wind wind patterns. The main problem with depletion of the ozone layer was not so much any effect on the weather, but the potential effect on our health, through excessive exposure to ultraviolet light.
