Is it true that Chlorofluorocarbons released by human activity destroy ozone in the stratosphere?
Yes. Multiple authoritative sources, including a peer-reviewed review and official EPA, WHO and DEFRA records, state that human-released chlorofluorocarbons reach the stratosphere, break down under ultraviolet light, and release chlorine that destroys ozone.
