Turns out, that the hole in the ozone layer didn't get repaired. In fact, it's larger than it's ever been and above the Antarctic. Antarctica is currently experiencing a mass die-off of animals. We didn't do shit.

We definitely did something. It just would have been a lot worse if we didn't. In fact so bad that BBC says the planet would have been "uninhabitable."

It's not. I'm guessing they did a Google search, looked at a few misleading article titles, and then decided they were a scientist.
On average, the hole has been shrinking, but 2023's hole was the 12th biggest on record. The eruption of Hunga-Tonga was thought to be the main factor.
