What bad things does the ozone layer do?

Answer 1

The ozone layer (a relatively thin section of Earths atmosphere that contains the chemical O3) functions to block electromagnetic radiation from outer space, more specifically UV radiation from the sun. UV radiation has energies higher than that of visible light and helps to build vitamin D in human skin (which holds its own host of benefits). However, too much exposure to UV radiation leads to sun-burn, 'sun-sickness', cancer of the skin, outer tissues, and damage to eyes and genetic material (possibly causing cancer). UV also leads to a host of affects well beyond humans but those are beyond the scope of this answer. Therefor, if the ozone layer is negatively effected than the earths surface will receive too much UV radiation. If the ozone layer is positively effected (meaning an over-abundance of ozone) than the earths surface will receive too little UV radiation.

Answer 2

The dangerous sun rase which bounce back to the sun because of the layer won't bounce back and enter the earth, hit the ground and then it will get too hot, all the ice will melt, there will be floods as water level will rise and people will die of drowning and because it will be too hot

Answer 3

A damaged ozone layer can lead to increased exposure to harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, which is known to cause skin cancer, cataracts, and weaken the immune system in humans. It can also have detrimental effects on plant growth, marine ecosystems, and disrupt the balance of certain gases in the atmosphere.

Answer 4

It causes lung damage if you breathe it in.

Answer 5

When ozone gets worse, UV start entering it. These UV rays cause various problems for life on earth.

Answer 6

If the ozone hole gets bigger, more and more harmul ultraviolet radiations will enter the earth's surface. These radiations can cause various fatal diseases in humans and animals.

Answer 7

we will all die
