Best Answer

Ozone absorbs and reflects most ultraviolet light and other high energy electromagnetic waves. A decrease in ozone will result in more of these rays reaching the surface of the earth. These rays are bad for the environment and people.

Why would a decrease in the density of the ozone layer cause public health problem?

The ozone layer protects us against deadly radiation from the sun (like Ultra Violet and Infrared). A little of this radiation isn't that dangerous (sunbathing). But when you get too much, you can get cancer (to much sunbathing can cause cancer too). A reduced density in the ozone layer could let through too much dangerous radiation, and thus forming a problem to the public health.
