SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) -- The ozone hole over the Antarctic is growing at a rate that suggests it could be headed for a record size this year, Australian scientists said on Friday.

Oh dear... our ozone hole is getting bigger! If this keeps up, we're liable to become toast within minutes of walking outside!
 
Have to remember that Australia receives the most of the brunt here. It's due to the ozone layer hole almost directly above Australia. :( We Australians have to be extra careful when going outside -- have to slip, slop, slap extra dollops of sunscreen cream.
