I thought, this problem is solved?

Increased use of relatively short lived chemicals that can get chlorine
up into the ozone layer seems to be having a deleterious effect. They
were not regulated before because they were thought to be too reactive
to survive long enough in the atmosphere to get up there.

I suspect there are some places still making illicit CFCs too but
nothing on the scale that they used to be used.

Y'all not heard of the blindness and other effects it caused in South America?
Stay informed. Not ignorant. The Interweb, not Google, is your friend.

ANYONE who spends time in the sun without eye protection for years on-end is going to suffer from some vision issue, cataracts, etc. Doesn't matter where you live.

Tell that to all the sheep and all the wild animals who weren't warned of the dangers.

Aren't sheep "sheeple" several times removed?

At the height of the scare, the absolute *worst* case prediction of
the destruction of the ozone laywer was an increase in UV radiation
that was the equivalent of moving from Norway to the Mediterranean
coast.

The same chicken-little kooks who wrote that have a ZERO prediction accuracy rate over the last 50 years. Like oil running out, mass starvation by 1980, etc. Shouldn't let anthropologists and sociologists with degrees from left-wing, second-tier universities dictate policies.

They've done very well at the only prediction that really matters:

"If I scare people with this fake prediction, I'll sell a lot of
copies of my book. And since nothing bad will happen, next year, I
can write another book and do it all again."
