Ozone threat from aerosol gases alarms Harvard study
Harvard researchers Michael McElroy and Steven Wolsky warn freon aerosols used in sprays could deplete the ozone layer by 1990 with a potential 14 to 15 percent loss, accelerating to 30 percent by 1994 if emissions rise 2 percent yearly. An independent Michigan team led by Cicerone Stolarski and Walters cites chlorine from freon as a dominant ozone breaker by 1985 or 1990.

Harvard Study Links Freon to Stratospheric Ozone Loss
Harvard researchers warn freon and shuttle exhaust may deplete ozone as sunlight splits freon to release chlorine. They extended prior calculations from Concorde-like jet emissions, estimating a potential ozone reduction around one percent, driven by chlorine’s catalytic destruction.
