For some years, the question on the ozone layer has been spreading across the countries. However, there is good news for all who were worried about the ozone layer. The good news is that the void found in the ozone layer is slowly shrinking. The chemists who have invested a lot of years in finding a solution for this issue are happy saying that their work has given an early result. Most of the atmospheric chemist could not believe that the void found was shrinking this early. They said that even if the hole will not get completely closed until early-mid century, the healing itself is like a ray of hope which gives assurance to the scientists that the void will get covered completely.
It was found in 1987 that the destruction of ozone will result in cancer-causing ultraviolet rays. During the winter season, water and nitric acid condense out and forms clouds. The chlorine from these cloud particles can destroy ozone in the form of light. Scientists are happy, and they thanked the chemical ban which has helped in covering the void slowly in the ozone layer. They hope that if this process continues, the void will get closed soon.
