The two issues are not directly connected. The thin layer referred to as the hole in the ozone layer is a natural event that has been happening for eons as is global warming and cooling.
The ozone hole only lasts for a short time over each pole due to a lack of sunlight hitting that portion of the atmosphere.

∙ 9y agoThe ozone layer has something to do with UV light. It absorbs it.
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoYes, it does act like one. It is present in the stratosphere as a layer. This shields us from the harmful UV radiations.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoUV rays and ozone are interrelated. UV helps to create as well as destroy ozone.

What light does the ozone layer block out?
No, the ozone only blocks: * UV-C and more energetic light (mostly blocked by oxygen and nitrogen), * UV-B, * some slight interaction with a wavelength of blue light, * strong absorption in far infrared, and * strong interaction with some microwave frequencies. UV-A and visible light is passed through by ozone.
What is the importance of the ozone layer to human?
The 'ozone' layer in the upper atmosphere blocks out harmful (cancer causing) ultraviolet light from the Sun.
Which form of light is absorbed or reflected by the ozone layer?
UV light is absorbed by the ozone layer. It is the harmful part of sun's radiation.
Why is the ozone layer a part from the world?
Ozone layer is the part of this world. It protects us from the harmful UV light.
What gas is responsible for absorbing the uv rays?
The gas that absorbs UV rays is ozone. This is present as ozone layer in the atmosphere.
How are UV radiation and the ozone layer related?
UV radiations help in creation of ozone layer. They also deplete it.
What light does the ozone layer block out?
No, the ozone only blocks: * UV-C and more energetic light (mostly blocked by oxygen and nitrogen), * UV-B, * some slight interaction with a wavelength of blue light, * strong absorption in far infrared, and * strong interaction with some microwave frequencies.

What is the importance of the ozone layer to human?
The 'ozone' layer in the upper atmosphere blocks out harmful (cancer causing) ultraviolet light from the Sun.
What is the ozone in Ozone Layer?
Ozone is a trioxygen molecule. It is formed by the action of UV light on oxygen.
Which form of light is absorbed or reflected by the ozone layer?
UV light is absorbed by the ozone layer. It is the harmful part of sun's radiation.
Why is the ozone layer a part from the world?
Ozone layer is the part of this world. It protects us from the harmful UV light.
Which layer of the skin is associated with protection from the ultraviolet light?
The O-zone layer protects us from UV rays emitted from the sun.
Hole in UV layer?
There is no hole in UV but in ozone layer. And the hole in ozone layer is actually the thinning of the layer.
What strengths does the ozone layer have?
The ozone is a very environment friendly layer. It is light as well as powerful. It protects us from the harming UV radiations.
How do you spell ozoan layer?
The layer is the "ozone layer" (stratospheric O3 molecules that block UV light).
What gas is responsible for absorbing the uv rays?
The gas that absorbs UV rays is ozone. This is present as ozone layer in the atmosphere.
How is the ozone layer affecting UV levels?
Ozone layer affects the UV levels by blocking it. In the absence of Ozone, more UV will enter.
