Man has damaged the ozone layer, especially through the use of certain chlorinated fluorocarbons. He has also increased generation of the harmful variety. Nevertheless, there are valid uses for ozone generation, such as purification in wastewater treatment plants. There are even ozone generators for air purification and fish tank fungus prevention.
