Will there be any form of survival for humans and living things on the planet earth? Can gaseous emissions be stopped?

the ozone layer prevents harmful UVc and lower wavelengths of UVb radiation from reaching the Earth. If these radiation wavelengths reach the Earth, it will decompose DNA as it is sensitive to reactions at those particular energies. So, our skins would become highly melanomic as would the exposed tissues of all life on Earth. Nothing would survive, except perhaps deep underwater/underground bacteria or other life.

We wont live to notice. We would all bake like a peach in the microwave wayyyy before the ozone depleted that far.
On the other hand, what scientists dont like to say, is that the earth has the ability to revitalize itself, and that includes the Ozone, as well as its electromagnetic shielding. (that protects us from most of the hardened radiation that comes from the sun)

the ozone is the earths protective shield from the deadly rays of the sun such as uv as u know , without the shield the earth and all of its inhabitants will cease to exist...
the ones with the most money make the rules and if they do what is good/right for the planet and people it will lessen their profits, they dont care about nothing but themselves and their money, but ask them this, where will their money be of any use without a planet or any people, their nothing but a bunch of greedy bastards. money rules the world not compassion and ethics. mankind will be its own demise, bet on it.

This so called hole is the result of the earths magnetic field it moves the ionised O3 ozone. It has always been the case and will not totally disappear.the ozone is being made constantly by the worlds oceans.

the so called 'hole' is actually getting smaller, but whether it will continue to get smaller is another matter. i'm not going into too much detail but the fact that the earth is still coming out of the last ice age (10,000 years ago) means the planet is still warming up after it, so don't worry too much about so-called global warming. it's just scare-mongering by tree huggers.

the hole in the ozone layer isn't actually a hole its just where the ozone is thinner than the rest due to the pollution in the world. it just means that it is warmer than it is usually.
don't worry, it won't happen for a few more years.

We will have to wear protective clothing, but only god knows if we will survive such a disaster, what will happen to earth is best not to think about.

I guess we all burn up. Depends on how long a timescale it takes for this to happen. I expect scientists are busily working on this and will come up with an answer in time.

isnt gonna happen sister, by the time it gets so big, as the uv rays burn us all to a crisp, n were all dead n gone, the earth will heal herself, and start all over again, with hopefully a more inteligent specie than MAN!!

We become the 2nd red planet, like Mars.
