13. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs
and the Ozone Layer
ozone O3 layer absorbs most of the
sun’s harmful radiation.
CFCs - chlorofluorocarbons - are
depleting that ozone layer.
CFCs are used as Freons in
refrigeration,
air conditioning, and foam insulation.
Their use in spray cans is no longer
allowed.

14. Chlorofuorocarbons and the
Ozone Layer
In the stratosphere, the CFCs react with
the high-energy UV radiation from the sun
CF2Cl2
Freon-12

15. Chlorofuorocarbons and the
Ozone Layer
To become stable, the Cl• acquires an electron
from ozone O3 and produces ClO.
Cl•
+
O3
ClO + O2
The presence of ClO in the atmosphere is an
indicator of the disappearance of ozone.

16. Impact of Loss of Ozone Layer
According to the National Academy of
Sciences, each 1% loss of ozone increases
by 2% the amount of UV radiation reaching
the earth. More UV radiation means more
skin cancer and cataracts in humans, more
intense photochemical smog, and lower crop
yields.
