Concentrations of ozone-eating atoms or molecules in the neighborhood of one in a thousand pose no threat to the ozone layer
What will be an ideal response?
Not so, as discussed in the chapter. Even small concentrations of certain
molecules cause deleterious effects because they destroy ozone and are reconstituted to
destroy again and again.
