Ozone depletion is a long term decrease in atmospheric ozone in the region above the lower troposphere. Its symptoms include more UV-B arriving at Earth's surface, and a larger, longer-lasting, sooner-starting ozone "hole". (The ozone "hole" itself is a natural phenomenon.
Global warming (better called "global climate change") is a long term increase in sea levels, decrease in land-supported ice flows, and increase in hurricane / typhoon intensity and/or frequency.
Ozone depletion may or may not contribute to climate change, but since ozone is itself is a greenhouse gas, it would allow the daily high temperatures to be slightly higher and the lows slightly lower.
Warming of the atmosphere underneath the ozone layer, allows more water vapor in to reduce the amount of ozone present. So in some sense global warming contributes to ozone depletion.
The ozone layer is a layer of gas high up in the atmosphere that helps to protect us from the suns ultra violet rays. It was concluded that man made chemicals that were being released into the atmosphere were destroying it, causing a hole over Antarctica. The greenhouse effect is thought be where more of a certain type of gas is causing the planet to warm up. The theory is that mans influence on the environment is changing the levels of these gases significantly, gases such as carbon dioxide released from manufacturing processes and car exhausts have increased too much. These 'greenhouse' gases prevent the earth from loosing heat as quickly, holding more of it in than normal.
The holes in the ozone layer, one over Antarctica and a smaller one over the north polar region, have little to do with global warming, but ozone depletion (the cause of those holes) and global warming are both caused by human activity.
The thinning of the ozone layer, associated with the holes in the ozone layer, allows too much ultraviolet through to the earth's surface, with potentially dangerous consequences for health for those in the polar areas. CFC's, gases that have been used in refrigeration and airconditioning units, as well as in aerosol sprays, are substantially heavier than air, yet trace amounts have been seen in the upper atmosphere. Being highly reactive, they combine with the ozone in the upper atmosphere, depleting the natural concentration of ozone. The production of these CFCs has been banned in some countries for more than twenty years and the world's ozone layer is beginning to recover, but it will take many more years before we receive the protection from harmful ultraviolet radiation that we formerly enjoyed.
Global warming is a different process and the consequences are different, and perhaps more severe. Anthropogenic (man-caused) global warming dates from the beginning of the industrial age, with average global temperatures rising only slowly at first, but accelerating since the 1970s. The cause is the emission of additional carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, from the burning of fossil fuels. Potential consequences include loss of wildlife habitat, rising sea levels, destruction of coastal areas, increased storm activity, property damage and economic losses.
A:Differences:Similarities:
They are two different kinds of things. The Ozone layer is a thin layer of ozone gas all round the world that protects us from harmful solar radiation. Global Warming is the warming of the atmosphere from the enhanced greenhouse effect, where extra greenhouse gases capture more heat and cause the temperature to rise all over the world.
Ozone hole and global warming are inter related. However they are different as they happen in different atmospheric layers.
There is a difference between global warming and ozone layer. One is on earth, one in atmosphere.
Global warming and ozone depletion are different and similar too. One takes place in troposphere and latter in stratosphere.
Ozone layer affects global warming. The same is true for the reverse.
Global Warming and the Ozone Layer are completly different matters. So to sum things up nothing happens to the Ozone Layer in Global Warming.
Neither. Global warming has nothing to do with the hole in the ozone layer. The hole in the ozone layer has nothing to do with global warming.
The ozone layer and global warming are very loosely connected. It is the carbon emissions around the ozone layer that are causing global warming.
Ozone layer and global warming have such a strong relation. The relation is like a strong force.
There is very little connection between global warming and the ozone layer.
Global Warming and the Ozone Layer are completly different matters. So to sum things up nothing happens to the Ozone Layer in Global Warming.
Global warming is the warming of globe. Ozone layer is the layer of ozone. It is depleting due to former.
Neither. Global warming has nothing to do with the hole in the ozone layer. The hole in the ozone layer has nothing to do with global warming.
Ozone depletion causes global warming. This then causes global temperature to change.
The ozone layer and global warming are very loosely connected. It is the carbon emissions around the ozone layer that are causing global warming.
Global warming is dissolving the ozone layer. It causes ozone depletion at large scale.
Global warming is heating of earth. It causes ozone depletion.
Yes global warming destroys ozone layer. They are interrelated.
Ozone layer and global warming have such a strong relation. The relation is like a strong force.
There is very little connection between global warming and the ozone layer.
There is very little connection between global warming and the ozone layer.
The ozone has been depleted. This is due to global warming.
