The layer of ozone (O3) in the atmosphere absorbs UV-C solar radiation with wavelengths above around 200 nm as well as most UV-B radiation. UV-C radiation is very harmful to living things, so without the ozone layer we would have to keep ourselves, our families, our pets and our plants shielded from sunlight.
