Answer:

When chlorine and bromine atoms come into contact with ozone in the stratosphere, they destroy ozone molecules. One chlorine atom can destroy over 100,000 ozone molecules before it is removed from the stratosphere. Ozone can be destroyed more quickly than it is naturally created

Explanation:

This is what I know about the Ozone Layer [Basics]
They Ozone was created millions of years ago from a natural process frozen in ice during the ice age, the gases that make up the ozone layer were formed naturally from a reaction of ultraviolet radiation and molecular oxygen which was frozen in the ice during the time of the ice age was released over years as the ice melted. However over hundreds of years of mechanical evolution and other man based forms of carbon production the ozone layer has decreased much faster than it has been repaired, meaning loss of the ozone layer occurs more often
