The document discusses ozone layer depletion and the formation of holes in the ozone layer over Antarctica. It describes how ultraviolet radiation breaks apart DNA and ozone absorbs UV light. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were found to catalyze the destruction of ozone through a series of reactions. Strong winds isolate air over Antarctica in winter, allowing ice clouds and CFC reactions to deplete ozone and form holes that grow larger each year. International agreements have led to a ban on CFCs to help the ozone layer recover.
