The ozone hole over Antarctica is the seventh smallest it’s been since the early 1990s. Recovery began with the Montreal Protocol, which ended the production of all chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs ...

But the longer the hole persists, the greater the likelihood that the ozone layer is dominated by natural factors, not human CFC emissions. First published at Master Resource. Steve Goreham, a policy ...

Back in 2014 researchers reported the first signs of a thickening in the ozone layer. At that point they said it would take a decade for the hole to start to shrink but by September 2015 ...

After the British scientists published their results, the NASA scientists published the first images of an area of ozone depletion over Antarctica that was as large as the continent. The term "ozone ...

Experts say their continued use could set back the closing of the ozone hole by up to 30 years. Scientists reported last year that they had detected the first clear evidence that the thinning of ...

A new study published in the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics reveals a 17-year delay in the projected recovery of ...

In fact the hole was more like a very thin patch ... In 2018, NASA found the first direct proof that the ozone layer was recovering. Their research showed that between then and 2005, ozone ...

Earth’s protective ozone layer is on track to fully recover from human-made damage following the near total phasing out of ozone-depleting substances, according to a UN-backed report. The Earth ...
