The ozone hole forms in the stratosphere not the ionosphere. The Ozone Hole is not mending faster than anticipated-originally the projection was 2045, it actually has been pushed to 2065 when the Ozone Depletion over the South Pole is projected to stop occurring.Ben Bova also wrote "The hole in our protective ozone layer was caused by chemical pollutants such as CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) and has been repaired thanks to international agreements to ban those chemicals in commercial use." his statement is completely false and scientifically inacurate. The ozone Hole formed last year and is forming again this year and will do so for the next 5 decades or so. I contacted Ben Bova and he could care less about being correct.for real info on the ozone hole visit-http://www.theozonehole.com
