Since then, our ozone layer has been on a healing process, and scientists estimate it could fully recover by 2066. Do you have a tip on a science story that Newsweek should be covering?

the ozone layer is expected to recover to 1980 values (before the appearance of the ozone hole) by around 2066 over the Antarctic, by 2045 over the Arctic and by 2040 for the rest of the world ...

The Antarctic ozone layer is currently healing, as a result of global efforts to reduce ozone-depleting substances.

The ozone layer is on the mend, and it's thanks to human action. A new MIT-led study confirms - with 95% confidence - that ...

On 16 September, the world will mark the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer. It was on this day, 35 years ago, that the Montreal Protocol, considered one of the most ...

It projected the ozone layer should be restored to 1980 levels over the Antarctic by around 2066. Smaller holes over the Arctic were projected to recover by 2045, and for the rest of the world in ...

A new research underscores how future increases in methane emissions could significantly influence ozone recovery, particularly in the polar regions.

Despite the success of the Montreal protocol, the ozone layer is not expected to fully recover until 2066, meaning it will take an 80-year effort to restore what was harmed in just a few decades.
