Answer:

Ozone depletion

Step-by-step explanation:

Release of ozone depleting pollutants in atmosphere has led to ozone hole. Ozone is present in stratosphere of the atmosphere of earth and serves to absorb harmful UV radiations of sunlight. The adverse effects of ozone depletion of human health (as severe as skin cancer) led to acceptance of Montreal protocol. The protocol aimed to check the release of ozone depleting substances in atmosphere to prevent any further ozone thinning.
