The Antarctic ozone hole is among the largest on record, how does it affect me?

A hole in the atmosphere's ozone layer is the seventh-smallest since recovery began in 1992, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration announced Wednesday.

For the first time, scientists have identified an ‘ozone hole’ over the Arctic, in addition to the well-known ozone hole over the Antarctic. Unusually persistent low temperatures over the arctic in early 2011 caused an unprecedented amount of chemical destruction of stratospheric ozone there. The authors warn that this is likely to happen again, although it is presently difficult to predict when this might be.

The ozone hole above the Antarctic has hit its maximum extent for the year. Due to warm temperatures, the opening in the protective atmospheric layer was the se

Good news from Antarctica: The hole in the ozone layer is shrinking, new measurements reveal.

The worldwide ban on ozone-depleting chemicals stopped Arctic ozone from disappearing and forming an "ozone hole" similar in size to Antarctica's.

The hole in the ozone layer over Antarctica is nearing record-breaking size again, scientists say.

The new wound further diminishes Earth’s protective shield against damaging solar radiation

New NASA study offers first direct proof that the ozone hole is recovering thanks to the Montreal Protocol treaty and the international ban on CFCs.

Don't give up; Collective and individual actions can change the world.

We don't hear about the ozone layer as much as we used to anymore, but that doesn't mean that the problem has been solved.

Proving once again that mankind can reverse the effects of our mistakes if we just take firm and fast action
