Discuss the causes of global warming and ozone-layer depletion

Assertion (A) : The decline in the thickness of the ozone layer over restricted area is called ozone hole. Reason (R) : An Ozone hole is really not a hole but rather a thinning of the ozone layer in the stratosphere.

Assertion : CO_2 and methane are called greenhouse gases. Reason : These - radiate heat and radiations cause global warming.
