Yes! But it'll take a few thousand years of zero pollution, sooo....... no, not really.

No one knows for sure. There is some evidence to suggest that the ozone layer has had holes in it before that were created because volcanos spewed out massive amounts of CFC's, and that it repaired itself, but the hard truth is we just don't know because we haven't been studying it for long enough.
What we do know is that, as our reliance on CFC's increases (and it shows no sign of stopping), if there is a self-repair element to the ozone layer, we'll never find out.

It takes the ozone layer many many many years to repair itself and with the continuous damage that we are causing to it, I see it as the ozone layer will never catch up with us! It really is sad but with all the pollution that we put out daily the ozone layer has no chance!

No!! That is why people need to stop polluting.
Even if the ozone layer could repair its self with the help of mother nature...it would take too long. We are polluting our planet faster then mother nature can clean it.

Ozone is constantly generated naturally. It gets destroyed faster than it's generated, though, sometimes. The reactions and conditions behind that are a bit complex, so I won't get into that. But......if we eliminate chlorine-containing compounds from getting into the atmosphere, eventually they would be removed from the atmosphere naturally and then the ozone layer could restore itself to its natural conditions.

yes, the ozone layer can repair itself, but it will take a long time to do so.

I'm sorry honey as far i knew it isn't possible. Ozone can't be repaired.
