The atmosphere can be significantly harmed through pollution, deforestation, and greenhouse gas emissions. Industrial activities release harmful pollutants, while the burning of fossil fuels contributes to climate change by increasing carbon dioxide levels. Additionally, deforestation decreases the number of trees that can absorb carbon dioxide, worsening air quality. Together, these factors can lead to severe environmental consequences and disrupt the planet's climate systems.

Why doesn't meteor hit the Earth's surface?
Yes, they do. Just this week (January 18, 2010) a meteor crashed through the roof of a doctor's office in Virginia and landed on the floor of the examining room. Granted, MOST meteors burn up in the atmosphere and don't survive the passage. But some do.
What is the protective layer of the atmosphere destroyed by CFC's?
The protective layer of the atmosphere that is destroyed by CFCs is the ozone layer. CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) break down ozone molecules, leading to ozone depletion. This thinning of the ozone layer allows more harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun to reach the Earth's surface, posing risks to human health and the environment.
What would happen if the atmosphere was completely destroyed?
If the atmosphere were completely destroyed, Earth would become inhospitable to most forms of life. Without an atmosphere, there would be no breathable air, leading to the immediate death of animals and humans. The planet would be exposed to harsh solar radiation and extreme temperature fluctuations, resulting in a barren landscape similar to that of the Moon. Additionally, water bodies would begin to evaporate, further diminishing the chances of sustaining life.
Did the space shuttle have any accidents?
Yes, 2 shuttles were destroyed and there were other minor incidents as well.
In which atmospheric layer do meteors get destroyed?
It depends on the size and constitution of the meteoroid that burned up. Some will burn up in any layer of the atmosphere, some meterorites will make it to Earth's surface, and some meteroids will skip off the atmosphere and head back into space. However, meteor showers occur in the mesosphere.
What layer of the atmosphere is being destroyed by certain chemicals?
The ozone layer present in the stratospheric region of the atmosphere is being destroyed by certain chemicals. These chemicals are CFCs.
What is the protective layer of the atmosphere destroyed by CFCs?
ozone
What happens when a meteor enters a planetary atmosphere?
it gets destroyed.
How can ozone in the upper atmosphere be destroyed?
just make becky sit on it :)
Does energy float in the atmosphere after it is used?
Energy can not be created nor destroyed.
What is wrong with earths atmosphere today?
Today the Earth's atmosphere is being destroyed by all the pollution by cars and power plants.
What layer of the atmosphere do meteorites come from?
The meteorites come from space. They are destroyed in mesosphere.
How is the ozone layer of the atmosphere getting destroyed?
harmful gases concentrating the suns ray
What would happen to the earth if the sun and the moon and the atmosphere suddenly destroyed?
we would die
Ozone hole is forming in which layer of the atmosphere?
The ozone layer is present in stratosphere region of the atmosphere thus, the ozone layer is depleted in this layer only. It is destroyed by the harmful CFC's released into the atmosphere.
How are coral reefs being destroyed by man?
Mainly by humans polluting atmosphere and by global warming we caused
