The ozone layer found in the stratosphere of the earth atmosphere. This region protects the earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation of the sun. It has potential to absorb around 99% of the harmful ultraviolet radiation.

The main causes of ozone depletion are chloroflorocarbons, carbon tetrachloride, methylbromide. The natural processes does not cause more that 1 to 2 % of the ozone depletion.
