Answered by santheshvikasa

Chlorofluorocarbons deplete the ozone layer, causing a hole in it. This allows the passage of sun's ultraviolet radiations to enter into the earth's surface which is harmful for life on earth. It causes cancer.

Answered by arshali94

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and halons destroy the earth's protective ozone layer, which shields the earth from harmful ultraviolet (UV-B) rays generated from the sun. CFCs and HCFCs also warm the lower atmosphere of the earth, changing global climate.
