I heard that ozone is evolved when electric motors are spun. I also know that there are unmanned weather planes that can go way up, tens of thousands of feet, running on solar powered electric motors. So I say we take a fleet of these things, a few thousand or so, and have them fly in a big circle
above the Antarctic for about thirty or so years. We'll put a big propeller-stabilized geosynchronous helium balloon in the middle of the circle to serve as a relay between fleet and ground control.

A bun for anything that may help the condition we're in. |

I'd like to see a bit of math supporting the feasibility of this idea (i.e. the mass of ozone Antartica has lost verses the output of a high altitude solar powered electric motor). |
