Factice

Cross-linking the fatty-acid chains with sulfur (brown factice) or Gas duster

Ozone layer depletion: Gas dusters sold in many countries are ozone safe as they use "zero ODP" (zero ozone depletion potential) gases; tetrafluoroethane, for example, has insignificant ODP.

Greg Hollimon

Hollimon grew up in the Chicago housing projects of Cabrini–Green, growing up alongside Ozone from Breakin'.

Susan Solomon

In 1986 and 1987 Solomon led the National Ozone Expedition to McMurdo Sound, where the team gathered the evidence to confirmed the accelerated reactions.

The Lockers
