No! The ozone layer is completely separate from global warming. Ozone levels are affected by chemical compounds called CFCs, which are no longer used in most countries, but used to be in aerosol sprays and fridges. Global warming is affected by levels of greenhouse gasses, like carbon dioxide, trapping heat from the sun in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is given off from cars and when electricity is produced.

Global warming is the result of increases in what?
Global warming is the result of increased levels of greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and methane, largely) in the atmosphere.
How does global warming affect landforms?
Global warming will increase the size of deserts.Rising sea levels will submerge some landforms.
Does global warming affect intertidal zone?
global warming would indeed affect the intertidal zone, it would affect the water levels, salinity and most likely temperature.
What gases cause global warming and how?
Greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and methane, mostly) cause global warming by increasing their levels in the atmosphere. This turns the benign greenhouse effect into an accelerated greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
How does the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere affect climate?
Yes. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. If levels of it in the atmosphere are higher than normal, then they trap more heat. This is causing global warming, and the world warming is causing changes in climate.
What is it called when there are high levels of carbon dioxide?
An enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect in the atmosphere which is causing global warming.
The temperature of the Earth is rising due to the increase of what?
Increased levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are causing global warming.
Why should the amount of carbon in the atmosphere today be reduced?
The present levels of carbon dioxide dioxide in the atmosphere are causing global warming and climate change.
Does smoking affect the ozone layer?
I think smoking has little to do with the ozone
Why there is a global warming?
We have cut down much of the great forests of the world.We have seriously burnt vast amounts of fossil fuels.This means that carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere have been increasing.More greenhouse gas in the atmosphere catches more heat.This is global warming and what causes it.
How would too low nitrogen levels affect an ecosystem?
its easy. global warming. earth will get over heated
What is the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere the biggest contributor to?
An increase in the atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide is the biggest contributor to global warming.
