Has anyone asked him/herself why there's only a hole over Antarctica, when halocarbons were released all over the world?
Weather patterns. You might as well ask why water collects in puddles, when the rain coats an area evenly.

It's a bad UV-A filter, a good UV-B filter, and an excellent UV-C filter.
