Yes, it does. It absorbs the UV radiation.
Ultra violet radiation or UV rays are harmful. Ozone protects us from it.
Ozone is the substance in the atmosphere that absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiation, particularly in the stratosphere. This ozone layer helps protect life on Earth from the damaging effects of excess UV radiation.
Ozone traps Ultra-violet radiation where as CO2 traps Infra-red radiation.
Ozone
Ozone is a type of oygen that sheilds us from some of the harmful sun radiation such as ultra violet radiation . It is found in the upper layers of the atmosphere
The ozone layer
It blocks Solar ultra-violet radiation from reaching Earth's surface.
Ultra violet radiation is bad, but once it goes through the ozone layer in the stratosphere is it harmless if a little hits you.
Ozone, or O3 in chemistry terms.
UV-B rays are absorbed. These are most fatal for mankind.
The gas layer that protects us from ultraviolet light of the sun is the ozone layer. Ozone molecules in the stratosphere absorb and scatter UV radiation, preventing it from reaching the Earth's surface in harmful amounts.
