It's not often that science, industry and government can agree on the causes of a complicated problem and then work to solve it. When they do, there's reason to celebrate. Last week an issue of Nature, a British journal, carried some unexpected good news that is directly traceable to a collective effort: The invasion of the stratosphere by chemicals that thin the earth's protective ozone layer is slowing down. If the trend continues, the buildup of ozone-destroying chemicals should stop by the year 2000. The worst of the destruction -- and it will get worse for a while -- should come around the turn of the century when the peak load of chemicals, now wafting upward, reaches the stratosphere. At that point, assuming no new assaults, the ozone layer should begin a slow recovery.
