Ozone Depletion

by: Jimmy Beers

Really !?!?

ozone is made naturally in the atmosphere when three oxygen atoms join together to form a colorless gas. Ozone can have good or bad effects, depending on where it's located in the atmosphere

"From a scientific perspective there is some indication that a nuclear war could deplete the earth's ozone layer or,less likely, could bring on a new Ice Age" - Herman Kahn

Why?

The Causes of Ozone Depletion, from Scientific evidence indicates that stratospheric ozone is being destroyed by a group of manufactured chemicals, containing chlorine and/or bromine. These chemicals are called "ozone-depleting substances"

Did you benefit?

chlorine and bromine and big business selling cheap products are benefiting because they are making money but us citizens air quality is being harmed putting us in jeopardy

will it impact us?

The Ozone depletion is going to start greatly harming us humans because when there is no protection from the strong uv-light rays everything will change

where?

Ozone is mainly found in two regions of the earth atmosphere. Most ozone resides in a layer that begins between 6 and 10 miles above the earth's surface and extends up to about 30 miles

who?

Every time someone turns on a car and the fumes come out they all add up with all the other cars ,they really harm our ozone layer each and every day

what even is it?

Ozone depletion describes two distinct but related phenomena observed since the late 1970s: a steady decline of about 4% in the total volume of ozone in Earth's stratosphere (the ozone layer), and a much larger springtime decrease in stratospheric ozone around Earth's polar regions.

In this photo you can almost see the ozone layer and why it is so necessary for it stop depleting

ozone depletion poem

My love for Ozone Layer is so great,
the chlorine melts it till the dusk of day.
in the night the layers slowly go away,
Polluting, declining till days have passed away

Its beauty is great,
Wondering mind 'til it sees,
Depleting is all Its doing,
While waiting for the moment for the ozone to stop depleting I think its time for a meeting.

solutions

Banning the use of dangerous nitrous oxide

Developing stringent regulations for rocket launches

Avoid using pesticides

Use Eco-friendly household cleaning products

Limit private vehicle driving

self solutions

everyone can make a difference to this cause the things that can be done are very easy and everyone should start doing eco-friendly things for our very limited enviroment

What am I going to do?

I am going to start encouraging people and me to bike or walk than to drive a car or not using non Eco-friendly pesticides and any thing that can harm us

BIG

Another impact is that huge companies that have BIG factories pollute the air at a much higher rate than anything else. We can not stop companies because we need most products that come from them and if we stop them are air quality will get better but things people need to survive will suffer greatly
