No, depletion means thinning.
The ozone layer is being depleted by chlorofluorocarbons which decomposes in the presence of short wavelength ultraviolet radiation from the sun. the chlorine radical produce in this reaction reacts with the ozone. The oxygen atoms present in the stratosphere reacts with the ClO to produce more chlorine radical.t herefore one chlorine radical produce can destroy many molecules of ozones.Thus a chain reaction is initiated.

∙ 12y agoThe ozone layer is no longer thinning. Ozone levels have in the past been decreasing because of ozone depleting chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).
Thanks to worldwide agreement and compliance with the 1987 UN Montreal Protocol (which agreed to phase out ozone depleting chemicals) global ozone depletion is no longer increasing. The Montreal Protocol is the most (some would say only) successful international agreement and scientists hope the ozone layer will have completely recovered by 2060.

Same effects of a thining ozone layer?
it mean if u litter on the earth its not good and the ozone layer layer get thiner and the sun will get closer to the earth and that mean nothing will happen wrong it means we will burn up into ashes and that means 2012
