The positives are quite simple: Oxygen enables life. Life is good.

The negatives may include: Too much oxygen can offset the balance in the ozone layer, which protects us from the sun. This works in reverse, if there is not enough oxygen, the ozone may be lost. If the ozone is lost, the earth would have NO shielding from the sun's Ultra Violet Ray (UV rays). If this happens, earth could conservatively reach extremes as high as several hundred degrees F. in the day, and as low as hundreds below 0*
