Ozone DepletionOzone Depletion

What Is Ozone Depletion:What Is Ozone Depletion:

Ozone layer depletion, is simply the wearing Ozone layer depletion, is simply the wearing out (reduction) of the amount of ozone in out (reduction) of the amount of ozone in the stratosphere. Unlike pollution, which the stratosphere. Unlike pollution, which has many types and causes, Ozone has many types and causes, Ozone depletion has been pinned down to one depletion has been pinned down to one major human activity.major human activity.
