When was the first hole in the ozone layer found?
The first hole in the ozone layer was discovered in 1985 over Antarctica by British scientists using data from satellite observations. This led to the establishment of the Montreal Protocol in 1987, an international treaty aimed at phasing out the use of ozone-depleting substances.
What percentage is ozone in the atmosphere?
In the ozone layer, ozone concentration is ~10 ppm. Ozone concentrations drop very fast from there. Figure 2ppm or less overall (0.0002%)
What have humans done to damage the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is damaged over the poles. It is due to the low temperature.
How did we harm the ozone layer?
Wee harmed the ozone layer by using intensive CFC's. These CFC's actually destroyed huge amount of ozone.
What are ozone layers confined of?
Ozone layer is confined of ozone molecules. These molecules form a huge pool of ozone molecules.
What are some environment deplete in the ozone layer?
There are huge environmental affects of deplete in ozone. Global warming is one such.
What damages ozone?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's) are the ones that destroy ozone. These molecules initiate a chain reaction inside the ozone layer which destroys huge amounts of ozone.
What damage is caused by the hole in the ozone layer?
The hole in the ozone layer leads to increased UV radiation reaching the Earth's surface, resulting in higher rates of skin cancer, cataracts, and other health issues in humans. It can also negatively affect marine ecosystems and terrestrial plant life.
Why can we compare the ozone layer to a sun screen?
Because... the Ozone layer blocks huge amounts of the Sun's radiation. Without it - the Earth would be a lifeless, charred rock.
What role do living organisms have in producing the ozone layer?
Living organisms have a huge role. They no not produce however they can save the ozone.
How can unesco analyze the role of the destruction of the ozone layer problem?
The UNESCO has a huge role. It is making laws for destruction of ozone.
What does ozone depletion do to the community?
If there is too little ozone in the ozone layer, excessive amounts of ultraviolet radiation will reach the surface, causing cataracts in people's eyes, severe sunburn, more rapid deterioration of many materials that are exposed to sunlight, and increased incidence of skin cancer. This would be a huge problem in any community where it happened. However, so far the only hole in the ozone layer is located over the continent of Antarctica, where there are no communities.
