Ozone is dangerous to human health when it is found at ground level in the atmosphere, particularly in urban areas where it can accumulate due to vehicle emissions and industrial pollutants. Ground-level ozone can irritate the respiratory system, exacerbate Asthma, and lead to other health problems. In contrast, ozone in the stratosphere forms a protective layer that shields the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. Thus, while stratospheric ozone is beneficial, ground-level ozone poses significant health risks.

How are health problems in human caused by the thinning ozone layer?
The stratosphere contains a special gas called ozone ,which is found in a layers called ozone layer.This layer blocks out most of the dangerous rays from our sun .These dangerous rays cause sunburn, which can lead to skin cancer
What are the negative effects that come from damaging the ozone layer?
Damaging the ozone layer allows dangerous ultra violet radiation to reach the earth. This can damage crops as well as human health.
Ozone is dangerous in which layer of atmosphere?
Ozone is found in all layers of the atmosphere. It is a minimum value at the extremes of the exosphere, and the bottom of the troposphere (where it is called a pollutant), with a peak value in the lower stratosphere. Ozone concentrations in excess of 0.05ppm in the lower troposphere is dangerous to people with asthma, and much above this, damages plants as well.
Why is the ozone important for skin?
See "How does ozone affect human health?"
How would the depletion of the ozone layer affect human health?
The depletion of ozone is in variance with human health. More UV's more deterioration.
What are the effects of the Ozone Hole?
See "Does the hole in the ozone layer effect human health?"
Is it dangerous to human health?
I am not sure the question you are to ask, but there are many things that are hazardous and dangerous to human health.
If ozone is poisonous why is the ozone emitted during baking bread not considered dangerous?
The ozone produced during baking bread is typically in very low concentrations and is not emitted in harmful amounts. Ozone can be harmful at high concentrations, such as in air pollution, but in the case of baking bread, the levels are too low to pose a risk to human health.
How does the depletion of the ozone layer affect human health?
The depletion of ozone layer causes:skin cancerSuppression of immune systemEye cataract.
Why do you think an ozone hole in the Northern Stratosphere is more dangerous than one located above Antarctica?
Ozone hole over Northern Stratosphere is dangerous. It is because it is present over human race.
What are consequences to human health of extreme ozone layer depletion?
The consequences to human health are many. Altering a DNA goes as fatal as it sounds.
Is carbon 14 dangerous to human health?
Carbon-14 is not considered dangerous to human health in typical exposure levels. It is a naturally occurring radioactive isotope found in small amounts in the environment and in our bodies. The low energy of its radiation makes it unlikely to cause harm.
