The hole, which forms over Antarctica and peaks in austral spring, topped out at 7.6 million square miles on Sept. 11. At more than double the size of the U.S., thats still big, but its well below the peak in 2000 when the hole spanned 11.6 million square miles, as well as the average extent since 1991 of 10 million miles. Perhaps most importantly, its the smallest extent since the world signed the Montreal Protocol, a landmark treaty to reduce the use of chemicals that cause the hole to form. That treaty has played a role in helping rein in the ozone hole, though the relatively tiny extent this year is also due to weather.
