How can people reduce the amount of electricity used by an air conditioner?
The best way to reduce the amount of electricity used by an air conditioner is to raise the set point of the thermostat to a warmer setting.
Way to reduce ozone depletion?
There are many ways to reduce ozone depletion like:Less use of CFC'SCFC'S produced by refrigerators,air conditioners,etc...
How do you reduce our impact on the ozone layer?
Don't release harmful chemicals and toxins into the air.
You can reduce the amount of pollutants in your home by?
Improving air circulation
How does the ozone layer help maintain ground-level air quality?
The ozone layer absorbs a large portion of incoming UV radiation, which keeps ground-level ozone from forming. A higher percentage of UV radiation entering the troposphere would allow a greater amount of ozone to form in the troposphere. Ozone is a pollutant in the troposphere. By regulating the amount of UV radiation that enters the troposphere, the ozone layer also regulates the amount of ozone formation in the troposphere.
How do polymers help us protect the ozone layer?
Polymers themselves do not help protect the ozone layer. Some of the solvents in processing the polymers do serve to produce ground level ozone. However, when you consider what the polymers are replacing, there is some beneficial use: wood, metal. Woods require cutting down trees, which can reduce available oxygen (all else being equal), whcih will eventually reduce the amount of ozone in the ozone layer. Metals are smelted using much more fossil fuel than is required to process polymers. Combustion processes add water vapor to the air and reduce available oxygen, both of which reduce ozone concentrations. Additionally, producing polymers ties up fossil fuels that would otherwise be burned... or turned into "face cream". And they can be recycled.
How is ozone produced in the air people breath?
Ozone is produced at ground level which is a pollutant. it is made by thunder and lightening.
Does an economical car reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air?
No car can actually reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air, but an economical car will add less additional carbon dioxide to the air than a less economical one.
What happens if you add ozone to the air?
The concentration of ozone in the air goes up.
Who makes a device to remove ozone from room air?
Any air moving device that has either Carulite 200 (a catalyst that turns ozone back to oxygen) or activated carbon (which requires frequent replacement / reactivation), will reduce ozone levels in the air passing through it. Odorous compounds with double carbon bonds or not-fully-oxidized sulfur will consume ozone. These would be perfumes, flatulence (sorry), rotten egg smells, and so on.
How could the ozone layer be damaged?
if people smoke and but there cigrete on the floor smoke goes in the ozone layer and delete air so more you smoke less air and more cancer
What measures can be taken to reduce the impact of ozone depletion and global warming?
There are several measures that can be taken to reduce the impact of ozone depletion and global warming. For example, making sure that old air conditioners and refrigerators are recycled by experienced technicians who can keep the CFCs from getting out is a great way to stop ozone depletion and global warming.
