Re: CFCs, damages the ozone

there could be possible leakage of these chemicals in the gas phase....
and people didnt realized its damage to ozone before serious results were observed...... such as the whatever hole over the Antarctica region.

there is sort of a seasonal ozone hole in the region, since the ClONO2 reactions occus when there are available surfaces, and during winter, water freeze in the upper atmosphere, ClONO2 reacts with some other stuffs in the atmosphere and ClO are released, which does damage to the ozone....

for details, take a look at http://www.atm.ch.cam.ac.uk/tour/part3.html

I have mistaken, apologized, and taken the consequences. My only regret, was for how I was bothered by the unchangable.
