How does aerosol have an effect on global warming?

Answer 1

Many hairsprays contain CFCs witch stands for chrolo flora carbonates. When the spray is sprayed the CFCs escape from the can and in the atmosphere in 20 years. It dissolves the cover of the ozone that the earth has witch stops blocking the sun and creates holes in the ozone layer.

Answer 2

It's depending on the type and content of the hairspray. Some hairsprays are in Aerosol cans and produce CFCs. When these CFCs are released into the atmosphere the ozone starts to get worn out and starts to break and diminish. So, in conclusion hairspray, depending on the type, is not bad for global warming. -an 8th grade smarty pants

Answer 3

Aerosol cans don't actually have an effect on the environment today. However, back in 1970 or so the aerosol cans contained a nasty chemical called ChloroFluoroCarbon. The CFCs caused the ozone layer to break apart, so the World decided to reduce the use of CFCs. Finding this unaffective, it was eventually agreed on to ban CFCs altogether.

It takes about 50 years for the CFCs to leave the atmosphere, but since the banning the ozone layer has repaired itself greatly.

For more information, look up the Montreal Protocol on a trusted site, such as wikipedia or a similar website.

Answer 4

Aerosols can have both a cooling and warming effect on the Earth's climate. Some aerosols, like sulfate particles, reflect sunlight back to space and have a cooling effect. However, black carbon aerosols absorb sunlight and contribute to warming. The overall effect of aerosols on global warming depends on their type, concentration, and location in the atmosphere.

Answer 5

The propellent in air sprays and other things has been blamed for many ills. The difference they make is insignificant and not measurable.

Answer 6

Aerosol cans affect global warming because they contain chemicals that are harmful to the environment. These chemicals affect the composition of the atmosphere.
