Ozone in the atmosphere can either be stratospheric (high level) or tropospheric (ground level). Stratospheric ozone is reduced by the presence of chlorine ions from CFCs. This impact can be reduced by limiting the amount of CFCs produced, used or lost. Ground level ozone is due to atmospheric down washing of stratospheric ozone by winds passing over mountains (which we can do nothing about). It is also produced by the action of ultraviolet light on a NOx/hydrocarbon mixture in the atmosphere. These can be reduced by reducing the emissions to these compounds from human activities.
The ozone depletion will be catastrophic. It is because it will cause human race to extinct.
Possible causes of ozone depletion include human activities releasing chemicals like CFCs into the atmosphere, which break down ozone molecules. Effects of ozone depletion can lead to increased UV radiation reaching Earth's surface, posing risks to human health such as skin cancer and cataracts, as well as harm to ecosystems and wildlife.
Carbon dioxide can cause the depletion of ozone indirectly. It is due to the global warming which then causes ozone depletion.
Ozone depletion in the stratosphere is an environmental problem. It is primarily caused by human activities that release substances like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that destroy the ozone layer, leading to increased exposure to harmful ultraviolet radiation. This depletion can have wide-ranging impacts on ecosystems, human health, and the environment.
Global warming and ozone depletion are not related.
Ozone depletion potential refers to the potential at which the ozone is depleting. Human activities are the main reason for its depletion.
The release of CFC's lead to ozone layer depletion. It reacts with ozone to deplete it.
The ozone depletion will be catastrophic. It is because it will cause human race to extinct.
Scientists are concerned about the ozone depletion. It is because this depletion can cause extinction of human race.
The major cause of ozone depletion is the reaction of CFC with ozone. They decompose ozone and cause its depletion.
Various natural activities also cause ozone depletion. Volcanic eruptions being the highest of them.

yeah but not really...it's mostly human activities
Greenhouse gases cause ozone depletion. They react with ozone to decompose it.
CFC's react with ozone to cause depletion. they decompose the ozone layer.
Ozone depletion and acid rain are big concerns. They cause various ill effects on human population.
CFC's cause depletion of ozone. It reacts with ozone to deplete it.
