It must become a grass-roots movement. Bussiness and Industry create these products, and they must be required as a part of their planning to safeguard the public and to properly dispose of their waste products.

To prevent the impact of CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons), you can avoid using products that contain them, such as some older refrigerants and aerosol sprays. Using alternative, more environmentally friendly products and supporting policies and regulations that restrict the production and use of CFCs can also help reduce their impact on the ozone layer.
When chlorofluorocarbons such as freon are used in manufacturing products such as refrigerators, they will eventually leak out and become CFC pollution; the solution is to use other, less dangerous chemicals when manufacturing these products.
By checking labels for CFCs and choosing other products without CFCs as an alternative can most certainly prevent further CFC damage to our environment.
Well firstly you could reduce the amount of aerosols and deodorants you use, and maybe try buying new items which have no CFC's in them.
hOPE i cOULD hELP!! :)
Angoulême CFC was created in 1920.
CFC gases have a long atmospheric lifetime, meaning they can persist for many years after being emitted. It takes time for them to break down and be removed from the atmosphere. Additionally, some older equipment and products containing CFCs may still be in use, delaying the full impact of the ban.
Refrigerants that contain chlorine are known as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs). Among these, CFC-11 (trichlorofluoromethane) and CFC-12 (dichlorodifluoromethane) are two of the refrigerants that contain the most chlorine.
R-22 is the refrigerant that contains CFC (chlorofluorocarbon). R-134a does not contain CFCs but is considered an HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) refrigerant. R-500 contains a mixture of CFC-12 and CFC-22. R-123 is a halocarbon refrigerant but does not contain CFCs specifically.
In the lower atmosphere, CFC molecules undergo photolysis when they are exposed to ultraviolet radiation from the sun. This process breaks down the CFC molecule into chlorine atoms, which can then catalyze the destruction of ozone molecules. This contributes to the depletion of the ozone layer.
