yesterday I called up my mom, and she was saying that it is heavily raining in chennai and in fact, chennai is inundated with water. Bad news for everyone.
Why these days we frequently here about floods and storms? I was discussing about this with my friend in madurai, during "hurricane katrina" time. He was saying that it is closely related to the depletion of ozone layer. And heard the same from many others too. Why suddenly Ozone layer started depleting, why it did happen before 100 years..Its all because of chemicals that gets emitted from our vehicles, air-coolants, etc.. Out of this, chloro fluoro carbon(CFC) is the major contributor for the depletion of ozone. CFC gets emitted from our air-coolants (fridge, ACs..). CFC does not do any harm to our atmosphere,I mean, it does not pollute of atmosphere. But it gets accumulated over the top and depletes the ozone layer.
Is there any remedies to avoid ozone's depletion? We can stop using all of our modern day-to-day medias and go back to stone age, to live a healthier life. or we can create devices which emits new chemicals,say XYZ, which will not harm our atmosphere. But we cannot guarantee that it will not create some other problem.
Sometimes I think that we can fill up the holes that are made in ozone layer, with ozone manufactured from earth. Like use the following reaction(?) and generate ozone, take a Rocket and fill up the ozone and come back home.
O2 + O2 + O2 === catalyst ===> 2O3.
This may sound absurd or funny, but if we have something of this sort then we can re-fill the ozone layer with ozone and can continue our fun with fridges and ACs and also we can avoid "hurricane simran" in future.

hmm....will chat on this rather than commenting .....
jagan: seri da...
chennai pages: the developed countries are driven by capitalists, who have already invested a lot on their technology and are hesitating for the change..
krish, rocket vittu ozone fill panna sollrathalam romba jaasthi. at first read i laughed a lot and then thought... who knows it may happen in future..
rajesh: that was a crazy idea, i know... but we can expect something of that sort :-)
hit upon yours from Naikutti's, use of CFC is banned in all major refrigerator manufacturers, however there are many unknown sources of ozone depleters.
The increasing intensities of natural disasters is exactly due to anthropogenic activities. There is a whole bunch of research going on this - on how human activities can impact nature's disaster mgmt like controlled floods.. it is a natural phenomenon..
btw, hurrican simran was quite creative :-)
i was thinking that cfc is still an issues with manufacturures.. btw, we cannot do anything with the already deployed coolants.
searching for anthropogenic activities....
