Human-made chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) led to the depletion of the ozone layer which is creating a hole over Antarctica. Depletion of the ozone layer can impact your health severely.

The ozone layer is a crucial component of Earth's stratosphere, located between 19 and 30 km above the surface. ... Ozone Layer Depletion and Its Link to Climate Change.

In this image, from September 2006, the Antarctic ozone hole was equal to the record single-day largest area of 11.4 million square miles (29.5 million square kilometres), reached on Sept. 9, 2000.

In rare good news for the planet, the hole in the Earth’s ozone layer is on track to recover completely within decades as harmfule chemicals are phased out, according to a new UN-backed assessment.

Now for some good news about our planet: The ozone layer is healing. A recent United Nations-backed assessment found continued progress in the global effort to repair the shieldlike layer high up ...

The healing ozone layer offers hope for the fight against climate change. But only to an extent. Because curbing greenhouse gas emissions is a much more encompassing task, requiring us to wholly ...

In new research, NOAA found that global concentrations of the harmful chemicals that damage the ozone layer have declined just over 50% in the mid-latitude stratosphere, to levels observed in 1980.

The assessment of the depletion of TCO in regions around the globe from 1980–1996 remains essentially unchanged since the 2018 Assessment. The ozone layer absorbs most of the sun’s ultraviolet ...

Earth’s protective ozone layer is slowly but noticeably healing at a pace that would fully mend the hole over Antarctica in about 43 years, a new United Nations report says.

Ozone Layer Depletion and Its Link to Climate Change. Although ozone depletion and climate change are separate phenomena, they share some interconnected aspects. Ozone Depletion.
