Air conditioners releases CFC (Chlorofluorocarbons) these are composed of several organic compounds of carbon, fluorine and also does contains hydrogen. These organic compounds cause great damage to our environment. It deforms our ozone layer; the ozone layer protects us from the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun and these CFC molecules tend to breakdown the ozone layer and lets the harmful ultraviolet rays to reach all the living beings these rays cause harmful skin diseases and are also the reason behind the increasing number of skin cancer patients.
