The most common uses are in spray cans and cooling systems The chemical pollution from these fluorocarbons can account for some of the ozone losses that have been reported There are, however, new studies linking the sun itself to the depletion of the ozone layer We’ll go into that new study more next time Moon.vn - Học để khẳng định Hotline: 0432 99 98 98 Khóa Pro S: Luyện thi THPT Quốc Gia - 2018 – GV: Vũ Mai Phương Fb: Vũ Mai Phương Question 26 Who is the most likely speaker?
