6 Quotes by Geir Braathen

As the amount of chlorine and bromine will continue to decline over the next decades, but very slowly, one expects the ozone hole to get smaller and smaller.

The size of this year's ozone hole is approaching an all-time high, but it will probably not break any records.

The size of the ozone hole this year was expected to be in the same region as in 2000 and 2003, the two largest ozone holes recorded so far.

It will probably not break any records, but it shows that ozone depletion is going on and that the so-called ozone recovery has yet to be confirmed.

At this stage it looks like this year's ozone hole will be quite average or maybe a little above average.

You could say that the ozone situation is stabilizing at a low level. We are approaching the maximum of ozone depletion, it is kind of leveling off, but it is still too early to say that the situation is improving.
