What are chlorofluorocarbons responsible for?

Ozone layer depletion. Acid rain. Radioactive pollution. Thermal inversion.

Ozone layer depletion.

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) are responsible for the depletion of the Ozone layer. The Ozone Layer helps keep out harmful UV rays that can otherwise cause skin cancer in humans and burn plants. CFCs cause chemical reactions that cause the ozone molecules to break down, thus reducing its UV absorption capability.
