Another factor that has influenced the formation of the Arctic ozone hole is an observed lack of ozone mixing within the stratosphere, he added. In a normal year, weather systems can churn big atmospheric waves that ripple up from the lower atmosphere through higher altitudes, mixing up ozone in the stratosphere. But this year has been oddly quiet, according to Newman.
Newman said scientists don't yet know what causes atmospheric mixing to slow, but he said it's likely a key factor in ozone depletion over the Arctic. The depletion event is not expected to pose significant health concerns, but Newman said any breach in the ozone layer is worrisome. And although the Arctic is registering record low levels of ozone, the situation in the Northern Hemisphere pales in comparison to the Antarctic ozone hole, which is vastly larger and much more volatile.
I must praise my eco bicycle life and try not to use toxic energies to protect the ozon layer for the next generation. .. for the world to get back in the joy and happiness, I will keep choosing ecologically sustainable lifestyle...I must..
The next crisis due to the inept leadership of trump.
All we need is a new tax on cold, wind and the clouds because the government says always says a new tax will fix everything

What dose this mean, good or bad?
Apparently someone went out and left the aurora borealis on.
So a massive reduction in human activity is worse for the planet?
Oh snap🤦♀️😬🤦♀️
Guys, I’m starting to think this planet would like us all to kindly leave.
