A dark blue wound across the bottom of the world — that’s what NASA images showed in the 1980s.

It was a hole in the ozone layer, eight million square miles across.

Human activity and convenience had quietly, but rapidly, eaten away Earth’s crucial shield against the sun, one that likely helped make life on land possible in the first place.

Ben Bradford goes back to re-examine the story of the ozone hole: how people discovered it, how they fought over what to do, and what finally happened.

It’s a tale of hairspray, human progress, exploding refrigerators, scientists balancing on icy Antarctic rooftops, and Ronald Reagan’s ranch.

And from it, maybe, we can find a map for building consensus on our most pressing environmental challenges today.

Guest: Susan Solomon, MIT atmospheric scientist and one of the key figures in solving the ozone crisis.
