ELI5 Where does alcohol go when it evaporates?

 After sanitising my hands for the 1000th this month it just dawned on me, where does this alcohol actually goes when it evaporates? recently there must be hundreds of tons of this all going into the atmosphere, but where does it end up?

Some of it will condense into slightly alcoholic rain and drop to the ground where it's metabolized by one organism or the other, the rest gets chemically degraded by high energy UV light (or radicals resulting from photochemical activation). The sun is extremely effective at shooting nearly every complex molecule in the air to pieces, eventually turning them into CO2, water, or other small stable molecules.
