What else can I help you with?
What are future problems does the hole in the ozone layer create?
Ozone hole is the thinning of ozone layer. Ozone hole can allow UV rays to pass through which can end life on earth.
What will be the harmful effects if the ozone layer is disturbed?
If the ozone is disturbed, life would end on earth.
How is Earth Science related to the end of the world in 2012?
Well Earth science is related to the end of the world because the gases from our automobiles are killing the ozone layer and the ozone layer is protecting us from the sun and if the ozone layer brakes the sun will be so hot on us that we could die.
What damages the ozone layer the most?
Chlorofluorocarbon gases (CFCs) eat the ozone layer alive where we use it everyday for industrial processes although the ozone layer can repair Itself. Another answer: The number one reason ozone thins in our atmosphere is due to a lack of sunlight. Without this energy, ozone naturally will decay into oxygen molecules. This is why the hole in the ozone layer only appears over the poles and then only at the end of the winter months at each pole. Once the sun returns, these holes quickly disappear.
How much of the ozone layer do you have right now?
The "ozone layer" is roughly the same condition it has always been in. The amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere varies mainly due to variations in solar activity. UV radiation has serious affects on this layer. Holes form over the poles at the end of each winter due to a lack of sunlight. When the sun returns, the "holes" quickly disappear.
What is ozone thinning?
This is a thinning (by about 2/3, of the ozone over the Antarctic during the spring time, towards the end of the long winter night in the south pole. There is no actual hole in the layer. This has occurred for centuries, in fact the thinnest we know the layer has ever been is in 1858, before man started using cfc's. A similar thinning occurs, to a much smaller extent in the Arctic during the end of it's winter night also. The thinning is much smaller in the Arctic and NASA even reffers to this thin area as the "Dimple" due to the small size.
What country has the thinnest ozone layer?
The hole in the ozone layer only occurs over the poles during the end of the winter at each pole. The only large thinning area occurs in the Antarctic. This is because of the long winter nights preventing the sun from making more ozone. Once the polar night ends, the hole repairs itself. The Arctic hole is referred to as the dimple by NASA because of the small thinning that occurs over that pole.
How can we save the ozone layer from thinning?
We can make efforts from our end to protect ozone. These efforts include planting trees and protecting from CFC's.
Will the hole in the ozone layer end?
No, you may not be able to rent ozone generators. Beacause scientists have found that generation should be done naturally.
Is the ozone layer going to eventually end all the life on earth?
If it completely disappears it could but not definitely.
Where does the ozone layer in the atmosphere diminish most over?
The Antarctic and only at the end of their winter when the sun does not shine for a extended period. The Arctic has a much smaller issue referred to as the dimple during the end of it's winter also.
What are the 3 of the solutions to the problem of ozone depletion?
The issues would require that there be a problem if depleting ozone. The ozone layer does have two holes in it. One is over the Antarctic at the end of the winter when the sun has not created any ozone for months. The other thinning area is referred to as the dimple because it is so small and over the Arctic during it's winter. Both are due to a lack of sun during the winter months. The hole is much smaller today then in 1858 which was the largest recorded thinning of the ozone layer. This was before CFC's and due exclusively to solar flares. The current environmentalist claim to your ability to help the ozone layer though is to not use aerosols, not use air conditioning and generally avoid CFC's.
