Ozone is a molecule. Ozone helps reflect Ultraviolet rays, which can cause skin cancer and sunburns. There are 2 types of UV rays: 1) Type A. It is mostly reflected by the Ozone layer. A ton overexposure can cause skin cancer, small overexposure can cause sun burns. Some Exposure can cause Tans, and makes us happy. 2) Type B. It is partially reflected by the Ozone layer, but doesn't do much to us other than almost nothing.

SO if the Ozone layer went poof, everyone aboveground would get skin cancer and die.
