The ozone hole was first thought to be an unnatural phenomenon, and we got all worried about that. Once we monitored the size of the ozone hole and how that seemed to increase each year, and once we monitored the UV-B radiation incident on the surface of the Earth, then we had a measure of ozone depletion. These measurements started in the early 1970s, with expectation of a positive result probably by the mid to late 1990s (with solar cycles contributing to fluctuations in ozone, and that is an 11 year cycle). So I'd guess 1995 or so. See the link below for more information.
