Ozone protects life on Earth from the harshest of ultraviolet light. Without it, there is a increased chance of people getting skin cancers and related problems from overexposure to the UV rays. The ozone hole occurs where there is no UV-B to be protected from, but it is an indicator of the overall "state of health" of the ozone layer. More contaminants = thinner ozone layer overall = larger ozone hole = ozone hole forms sooner = ozone hole heals later.
