the claim

Ozone layer depletion is the main cause of climate change.

the verdict
REFUTED
the evidence says no
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 6 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that ozone layer depletion is the main cause of climate change?

No. A UK government air-quality source states directly that ozone depletion is not a major cause of climate change, and several peer-reviewed chapters instead describe climate change as a driver affecting the ozone layer, with CO2 as the major contributor.
