Yes, it is. But only ground ozone is pollutant.
Ozone in the ozone layer is not at all a pollutant but it is something without which no ozone layer may have existed. Ozone can be considered as a pollutant in the stratospheric region but in the stratosphere or the ozone layer it is of full or complete use. No harms there.
Ozone is the gas. It is present as ozone layer in the atmosphere.
The ozone at ground is a secondary pollutant. It is also called bad ozone.
Ozone is a pollutant. It is at ground level a pollutant.
The tropospheric ozone is bad ozone. It acts as a pollutant.

Ozone (O3) is formed in the stratosphere, where it protects us from ultraviolet radiation. In the lower atmosphere ozone is considered a pollutant.
In general no. Ozone is a product of pollution, and is itself considered a pollutant.
Yes, in the troposphere, ozone is a pollutant.
Ozone is considered to be the most common air pollutant in the United States.
Ozone is the gas. It is present as ozone layer in the atmosphere.
The ozone at ground is a secondary pollutant. It is also called bad ozone.
Ozone is a pollutant. It is a secondary one. High ozone is good.
The ozone at ground level is a pollutant. It acts as a secondary pollutant.
Ozone is a pollutant. It is at ground level a pollutant.
Ozone in the troposphere injures / damages lung tissues in all animals. It also damages the leaves of most plants (which are their lungs). Ozone damages most rubber or plastic items, and bleaches the color from other items. A little ozone, like after a rainstorm is good, but continuous dosing is not. So it is considered a pollutant because it is largely man-caused, and because it has bad effects almost globally when in the troposphere.Yes some amount of ozone is also present in the tropospheric region. This ozone is formed by the lightning and sometimes released as a pollutant on the surface of earth. The concentration of this ozone is of the order of ppm so it can be considered as negligible as compared to the stratospheric ozone.
