About this document
CFCs and Their Impact on Ozone Layer by Louie Lam is a document available to read on EtoBox.
CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) are harmful chemicals that damage the ozone layer, which protects against harmful UV radiation. The Montreal Protocol, signed in 1987, successfully reduced CFC production by nearly 99%, allowing for the potential recovery of the ozone layer by 2040. Alternatives like hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) have been adopted, but they may also pose environmental risks.
