Measures that can be taken are:
1. Limit private vehicle driving
This is because vehicular emissions eventually result in the release of smog. This in turn also damages the ozone layer causing it to deteriorate. You can choose to take the public transport or use a bicycle. Another great way to restrict the use of car is by opting for Car Pooling. If you do want to use a vehicle, then it is recommended to switch to an electric or hybrid vehicle.
2. Use eco-friendly household cleaning products
Usage of Eco-friendly and natural cleaning products for household chores is a great way to prevent ozone depletion. This is because many of these cleaning agents contain toxic chemicals that interfere with the ozone layer. A lot of supermarkets and health stores sell cleaning products that are toxic-free and made out of natural ingredients.
3. Avoid using pesticides and prevent ozone depletion
Pesticides may be an easy solution for getting rid of weed, but are harmful for the ozone layer. The best solution for this would be to try using natural remedies, rather than heading out for pesticides.
4. Buy air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment that do not use HCFCs as refrigerant.
