    The ozone layer is being depleted by man-made chemicals like CFCs and halons which are released into the atmosphere. The ozone layer protects life on Earth by absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Its depletion leads to increased UV levels reaching the Earth's surface, which can cause skin cancer and cataracts in humans as well as damage plants. International agreements like the Montreal Protocol have sought to regulate emissions of ozone depleting substances to allow the ozone layer to recover.
