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. -- Regards, Martin Brown |
