Some chemicals that are being blamed for the destruction of the ozone layer are?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), halons, and other similar chemicals were commonly used in refrigerants, aerosol propellants, and solvents that were blamed for the destruction of the ozone layer. These chemicals release chlorine and bromine atoms when they break down in the atmosphere, which then catalyze ozone depletion.

Thanks to Physics
How do cfc's breakdown the ozone?
CFCs break down ozone in the atmosphere when they are exposed to ultraviolet radiation. This causes the CFC molecules to release chlorine atoms, which then react with ozone molecules, leading to the destruction of the ozone layer.
Why is it that the opening holes in the ozone layers tend to concentrate at the poles only?
The Ozone in the atmosphere is created by sunlight high in the earths atmosphere. It is destroyed naturally with time so there is a balance of Ozone in the upper atmosphere. However certain man made chemicals that we have put into the atmosphere destroy the Ozone faster and the whole Ozone level all round the earth is depleted, letting more UV radiation through to the Earth's surface. This global Ozone depletion results in holes at the poles because if you think about it for 6 months of the year the poles are not exposed to sunlight and thus no 'new' Ozone is being created to replace that which the man made chemicals have destroyed.
What is wrong with earths atmosphere today?
Today the Earth's atmosphere is being destroyed by all the pollution by cars and power plants.

hard to be certain from the phrasing of your questions but I read somewhere that that is how fast the rain forest is being destroyed in south america, through a combination of logging and slash and burn farming.
What would happen to the ozone layer if the ozone was being made in the atmosphere at a faster rate than it was being destroyed?
If the ozone was being made at faster rate, nothing would happen. The UV would control that rate.
How are trees being destroyed?
trees are being destroyed by people cutting them down.
Why are wetlands being destroyed?

What would happen to the ozone layer if ozone was being made in the atmosphere at a faster rate than it was being destroyed?
If the ozone cycle makes it at regular pace. Right now, the destruction is at faster rate.

Earths air is being harmed by.?
there is a helpful layer of gas around us called the atmosphere called the ozon. It protecs us from the sun rays but is being harmed by chemicals we humans throw in the sky.
What 2 chemicals was the Earth's first atmosphere composed of?
The Earth's first atmosphere was composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. These gases were eventually lost to space due to the Earth's gravity not being strong enough to hold on to them.
