_when O2 gets separated or splits into O+O and attached with O2 forms O3 that is ozone
_when CFCs reach the upper atmosphere, they are exposed to ultraviolet rays, which causes them to break down into substances that include chlorine. The chlorine reacts with the oxygen atoms in ozone andrips apart the ozone molecule.
_Ozone layer depletion increases the amount of UV rays that reaches the Earth's surface. Laboratory and epidemiological studies demonstrate that UV rays causes non-melanoma skin cancer and plays a major role in malignant melanoma development.
Not only skin cancer, respiratory problems, lung cancer, etc.
