Topic 9.2: Reducing Ozone Depletion
Learning Objective: STB-4.B
Describe chemicals used to substitute for chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).
Essential Knowledge: STB-4.B.1
Ozone depletion can be mitigated by replacing ozone-depleting chemicals with substitutes that do not deplete the ozone layer. Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are one such replacement, but some are strong greenhouse gases.
