Earth's atmosphere contains naturally-occurring ozone. Ozone, which contains three oxygen atoms joined together (O3), forms a layer miles above Earth's surface. The layer serves as a shield from the harmful ultraviolet rays of the Sun.
A group of chemicals called CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) are used as refrigerants, propellants, and cleaning solvents. At Earth's surface CFCs are chemically stable. However, CFC molecules can be broken apart high in the atmosphere and they can destroy the protective ozone layer.
Based on the information, which action would reduce the destruction of the ozone layer?
