Ozone Layer

The ozone layer protects us from harmful uv rays reaching the earth's surface and it reradiates back the 20% of the sun's heat waves.

CFC's contain Chlorine and Fluorine. They react with ozone and deplete it.

Ozone depletion is the process where ozone holes are created in the ozone layer. It is caused due to the action of chloro-floro-carbons on the ozone molecule to break it down to oxygen.

Nature IS the environment.

The ozone layer protects animals from cancer, mutation, loss of food, loss of natural habitat.

solution for ozne layer?

to stop the ozone we must not burn fuel and plastics

what it does to affect the ozone layer is lets of an oxygen that burns away the ozone layer.

It depends on where the ozone is. Ozone decreased at ground level is good for us.

The ozone hole happened when CFC's introduced. It caused due to depleting property of CFC's.

problems vary from inflammation in the lining of the lungs, chronic lung diseases, aggravates asthma, reduce lung functioning, and irritates respiratory system...

The stratosphere protects the Earth from most all harmful radiation. The nitrogen and oxygen absorb UV-C and more energetic radiation, and the ozone formed by some oxygen absorbing UV-C... in turn absorbs UV-B (which damages DNA).

Yes, it does. It releases gases which can cause ozone depletion.

Absolutely not.

Photochemical Smog is any chemical reaction that takes place with the presence of sunlight. The most common example is Ground-level Ozone, caused by reactions of common pollutants along with their reaction to the sunlight.

no, it is too low in the atmosphere.

Aerosols are harming the ozone. They contain the synthetic CFC's.

The ozone is made up of oxygen gas. 3 single atoms of oxygen form ozone.

The ozone layer protects us from harmful ultra violet(UV) beams

The source of ozone is actually the oxygen present in the high latitudes of the atmosphere. The UV rays are the ones which help to convert oxygen into ozone.

Chloroflourocarbons are not directly hazardous to humans, the chlorine in them rises to the ozone and turns the ozone into normal oxygen, which does not protect us from cosmic radiation, hence the hole in the ozone layer.

Yes, ozone at the surface of the earth is harmful as it is a greenhouse gas. However the ozone at the atmospheric level,it protects us from the harmful UV radiations of the sun.

Ozone in the troposphere requires four things to be made: # Oxygen molecules, # NOx (the combustion byproduct), # VOC (from fuel and natural sources), and # Violet or more energetic light from the Sun. So like fighting a fire, you can remove / control any one of them, and control production of ozone in the air we breathe. # Depleting oxygen - bad idea, kills all animal and human life, and our precious tonnage won't be able to run. # Park the tonnage, and either take public transporation or telecommute. Nothing has to die. # Convert wholesale to hydrogen or ammonia fuel cells, and biologically engineer all the natural organisms to stop producing and releasing VOCs into the air. Have to drive the other species extinct. # Only go outside, or drive tonnage at night. #2 and #4 don't require major changes to all of Nature, just in how we behave.
buy a hybrid. Better still, walk or ride a bicycle.

Yes. Ozone is constantly being made by the Sun. So all we have to do is stop adding ozone depleters to the upper atmosphere.

It allows more ultraviolet radiation to reach the surface of the earth, rather than being filter by the atmosphere. This is dangerous to animals & humans.
