What else can I help you with?
Will you die when the ozone layer breaks?
Yes, you will. There is a lot of time until the ozone breaks up.
It is thought that life could not have existed on land until the ozone layer formed about 2 billion years ago. Why does life on land require an ozone layer?
Because the ozone layer provides a thin layer of protection from the harmful UV rays or ultraviolet rays.
How much of ozone layer has been destoryed until now?
Ozone over the poles has been destroyed. It is due to the fact that ozone is susceptible to low weather.
How big was the hole in the ozone layer in 1880?
It is thought that the hole in the ozone layer was not present in 1880 as it is a result of human activities releasing chemicals like CFCs into the atmosphere over the 20th century. The hole started to be detected in the late 1970s and has been monitored since then.
Is it through that life could not have existed on land until the ozone later formed about 2 billion years ago why does life on land require an ozone layer?
Life on earth requires an ozone layer. It is because it absorbs the fatal UV rays of the sun.
Can you protect the ozone layer by planting more and more trees?
CFCs (chloro-fluoro-carbons) are harmful to the ozone layer. they used to be used in aerosol sprays and fridges until scientists discovered they were causing holes to form in the ozone layer. they aren't used anymore, but some developing countries are still producing them. ban the use of CFCs worldwide, and you would definitely help stop the destruction of the ozone layer.
How is carbon dioxide affecting the ozone layer when it is a heavy gas?
Carbon dioxide does not directly affect the ozone layer. However, it contributes to global warming, which can indirectly impact the ozone layer by altering temperature and circulation patterns in the atmosphere. While carbon dioxide is heavier than air, it does not impact the ozone layer's composition or depletion.
When did ozone layer develop?
See "It is true that life could not have existed on land until the ozone layer formed about 2 million years ago Why does life on land require an ozone layer?" in the "Related questions" section below.
How long will it take until the Ozone layer breaks down if people don't do anything about it?
It is difficult to predict an exact timeline for the breakdown of the ozone layer if no action is taken, as it depends on various factors such as the extent of ozone-depleting substances released into the atmosphere. However, ongoing efforts to reduce emissions of these substances through international agreements like the Montreal Protocol have been successful in slowing down ozone depletion.
Why wasn't ozone depletion a problem until the 20th century?
i dont know because your dumb
How long does ozone stay in the atmosphere?
Ozone is a very unstable molecule. The energy required of formation of ozone is much greater than the reverse process that is the formation of oxygen and nascent oxygen. However there is an ongoing process of formation as well as depletion in the ozone layer which makes its concentration in the ozone layer constant. However due to the CFC's the rate of depletion is increasing thus creating an ozone hole in the ozone layer.
Why is it important that pollution be limited or stopped?
Because pollution is ruining the ozone layer which keeps out the suns more harmful rays. If the ozone layer disappears, the earth will heat up and the icecaps will melt and the sea level will go up until New York, Tokyo and other city's and towns on the coast will be hundreds of feet underwater. We must stop air and water pollution or else life will cease to exist. Not just ozone, but pollution breaks down, and stops normal systems on earth. It also poisons living organisms.
