So apparently the ozone is beginning to slowly heal, through not fully heal until about 2050 or 2060.

This is a pleasant surprise. Through I fully expect one of you to tell me that this is actually the first step to some irreversible problem that will kill humanity in a slow, painful death.

Okay, so I'm usually pretty snarky around here, but I'm going to be blunt.

If this is true and continues, this is actually really cool. Good job, earth!

How can the Ozone be healing if it was never damaged in the first place? Humanity is not harming the environment at all!

Most likely true, although it has little to do with the Ozone issue.

The good news is that Hollywood won't have to go as far to film the next Mad Max movie.

Wait really *looks at Google*
Well then... 40+ years it is then
EDIT: Actually apparently to some sources, the ozone hole was linked to and may cause global warming
