Explanation / Answer

1) When chlorofluorocarbons are subjected to ultraviolet radiation from the sun, Chlorine is released, a gas which rapidly destroys ozone. CFCs are mainly responsible for man made chemical ozone depletion.

2) Subtropical highs or subtropical anticyclones are responsible for the existence of the major deserts of the world observed near 30 degree latitude. In subtropical highs pressure system that almost circle the globe near latitude 30 degree.
