The two issues are not directly connected. The thin layer referred to as the hole in the ozone layer is a natural event that has been happening for eons as is global warming and cooling.

The ozone hole only lasts for a short time over each pole due to a lack of sunlight hitting that portion of the atmosphere.

What light does the ozone layer block out?

No, the ozone only blocks: * UV-C and more energetic light (mostly blocked by oxygen and nitrogen), * UV-B, * some slight interaction with a wavelength of blue light, * strong absorption in far infrared, and * strong interaction with some microwave frequencies. UV-A and visible light is passed through by ozone.

Which light will burn the earth if ozone layer will have a hole?

Ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun would burn the Earth if the ozone layer has a hole. The ozone layer acts as a shield, protecting the Earth from harmful UV radiation. Without this protection, increased exposure to UV light can lead to various consequences like skin cancer, cataracts, and damage to marine life.

How is the ozone layer affecting UV levels?

Ozone layer affects the UV levels by blocking it. In the absence of Ozone, more UV will enter.


What type of light from sunlight is absorbed by ozone?

Ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun is absorbed by ozone in the Earth's atmosphere. Specifically, ozone absorbs UV-B and UV-C wavelengths of light, providing a protective layer that shields the planet's surface from harmful radiation.
