MIT researchers have found that ocean currents are at least
CFC-11 is a chlorofluorocarbon thatused to produce refrigerants and insulating foams. When released into the atmosphere, the chemical starts a chain reaction that ultimately destroys the atmospheric ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation.
Since 2010, the production and use of thisThe chemical has been phased out worldwide under the Montreal Protocol, a global treaty aimed at restoring and protecting the ozone layer.
Based on the results of their work, the authors believe that the global ocean will completely change its long-standing role - it will stop absorbing ozone-depleting chemicals.
Researchers predict that by 2075the oceans will release more CFC-11 into the atmosphere than they absorb, and by 2130 will release so many gases that it will globally affect the climate situation
Additionally, with increasing climate change, these events could occur 10 years earlier.
