A hearing on the environmental implications of ozone layer depletion over the Antarctic and other areas of the globe brought testimony from representatives of industry, space and climate research personnel, chemists, the Department of Commerce, and environmental groups and agencies. The area of most concern was predictions of increased skin cancers, cataracts, suppression of human immune systems, as well as a reduction in crop yields. Attention was focused on a comprehensive proposal offered to phase out the production and use of ozone-depleting compounds in the United States by 1996. The proposal includes provisions on recycling and disposal, trade, and the development of safe substitutes.
