Ozone depletion in the stratosphere is what type of problem a. local b. regional c. national d. global?

Ozone depletion (if / when it happens) is a global problem. Mankind's contribution is potentially nationally controlled, with depleters usually concentrated regionally, and responsibility for control lying locally.


What is the atmospheric layer where the ozone layer is found?

Good ozone is a type of ozone. it is found in stratosphere.


What type of chemicals are responsible for ozone deplenation?

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and other halogenated compounds containing chlorine and bromine are the primary chemicals responsible for ozone depletion in the stratosphere. These chemicals break down ozone molecules when they reach the ozone layer, causing a reduction in the protective ozone shield.


What type of pollution is the ozone layer suffering from?

The ozone layer is suffering from depletion. It is due to CFC's.


Which gas damaging the ozone layer?

Where is Good ozone found in what layer of the atmosphere?

Good ozone, known as stratospheric ozone, is found in the stratosphere, which is the second layer of Earth's atmosphere. It is essential for protecting life on Earth by absorbing the majority of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

What type of molecules damage the ozone layer?

The molecules that damage the ozone layer are chlorine molecules. These molecules are the main destructive reason behind depletion.


What type of chemicals play the major role in the destruction of the ozone layer?

The chemicals that play major role in ozone depletion are chlorofluorocarbons. These compounds contain chlorine which can destroy large amounts of ozone molecules.


How did humans change their actions to reduce ozone depletion?

* The scientists located and identified compounds in the "ozone holes", and showed that they did serve to destroy ozone. * The manufacturer's started testing various compounds before offering them for sale. * The more prosperous countries switched from compounds that were found to destroy ozone, to compounds that did not in laboratory testing.


Which layer of earth's atmosphere contains a gas that absorbs ultraviolet radiation?

The ozone layer, which is located in the stratosphere, contains a gas called ozone that absorbs ultraviolet radiation from the sun. This absorption of UV radiation helps protect life on Earth by reducing the amount of harmful UV rays that reach the surface.
