Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fossil fuels definitely harm the environment, and their supply is depleting. So that takes out answers C and D, leaving A and B. The main cause of ozone depletion and the ozone hole is manufactured chemicals being released into the air. While CO2 from fossil fuels does have an effect on worsening the hole, it has a much higher effect on global climate change.
