It didn't just repair itself. It was pointed out that we were chucking
nasty things into the atmosphere, people stopped doing some of that
and then it started to repair itself.


I think you will find the "hole" was repairing itself before a
significant drop in the CFCs occurred.

Where's the data for pre-1979? How do YOU know there was an unnatural
hole in the ozone layer. Given the significant year-on-year variation,
that graph proves nothing except that there was a decrease from the
1979 level. It's also a classic example of truncating the vertical
axis to make it appear to the less observant that the low point was
virtually zero.
