Default News: The ozone says not to call it a comeback; it's in fact been here for years

I came across this bit of news while looking into UFOs, airspeeds and atmospheric layers (obviously).

Turns out we may be saved afterall!

In new research, NOAA found that global concentrations of the harmful chemicals that damage the ozone layer have declined just over 50% in the mid-latitude stratosphere, to levels observed in 1980. The continued decline, NOAA scientists said, "shows the threat to the ozone layer receding below a significant milestone in 2022."

The 2022 index for the Antarctic has fallen 26% from peak values in the 1990s, with recovery of the Antarctic ozone layer projected to occur sometime around 2070.
