1)Scientific evidence reveals that stratospheric Ozone is being destroyed mainly by chlorine atoms of chlorofluorocarbons CFC molecules .
2)It is also found in industrial solvents ,dry cleaning agents and Hospital sterilants and foam .
3)During use of above materials a lot of CFCs get dispersed into the atmosphere .
4)Once these CFCs molecules are broken up by UV light ,it releases chlorine and bromine which for the demolish ozone at an alarming rate.
