CFCs are compounds made up of chlorine, fluorine and carbon bound together. ... Once in the stratosphere, the CFC molecules are no longer shielded from ultraviolet radiation by the ozone layer. Bombarded by the sunÕs ultraviolet energy, CFC molecules break up and release chlorine atoms.....

chlorofluorocarbons—CFCs—could destroy ozone, a molecule made up of three oxygen atoms, O3, in Earth’s stratosphere. That stratospheric ozone absorbs ultraviolet radiation that otherwise would reach the surface of Earth.
