Rowlands work leading to the 1995 chemistry prize was key to understanding the ozone layer. Rowlands co-authored 1974 paper in Nature theorised that the gases in air-conditioners and aerosols the now banned chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) - could deplete the ozone layer. It would be over a decade later that a great big hole in the aforementioned...
