Trump's EPA pick took hands-off approach to environmental crisis that shook Oklahoma

Another "alternative" fact by someone who doesn't understand chemistry.

 

CCl<sub>3</sub>F (this is the CFC molecule)  (undergoes reaction when sunlight (hv) strikes the molecule) ---> CCl<sub>2</sub>F<sup>.</sup> + Cl<sup>.</sup>
  <sup>Chlorine radyl Cl* is then able to to react with O3:  Cl* + O3 ---> ClO + O2 </sup>
  Chlorine 
monoxide then reacts with O2, and frees up the Chlorine radical which is then free to start the catalytic destruction of ozone process all over again:   ClO + O --> Cl* + O2 

 
 

And how is this anything different than what I just said? Y
ou are the one who said that the CFC destroys ozone, yet your chemistry demonstrates that it is free chlorine, which is what I said. You're the one who doesn't understand chemistry in this argument.

The same effect can be had if the reaction is HCl ---> H+ + Cl-  or NaCl ---> Na+ + Cl-. You still get the free Cl to catalyze the destruction of ozone, but the source is natural.
