The world worked together to ban CFC’s (chlorofluorocarbons) which were a major factor in creating the hole. CFC’s were widely used in refrigeration, air conditioning and aerosol sprays. The date for The International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer was chosen to commemorate the date the ‘Montreal Protocol’ was signed in 1987.
