The ozone hole above Antarctica will keep opening up each spring for decades to come

"The ozone layer is a vital planetary boundary that protects all life on Earth from the sun’s damaging ultraviolet radiation.Ozone depletion is also linked with climate change, and there are other emerging issues which could affect ozone recovery. These include more frequent mega-wildfires due to climate change, emissions from rocket launches and more satellite debris burning up in the upper atmosphere. Recent research shows mega-wildfires such as the Australian bushfires of 2019 can contribute to ozone depletion."
