The amount of nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons from human activity like road traffic has increased tropospheric ozone levels near the ground. Tropospheric ozone forms when sunlight reacts with pollution and can also be created in thunderstorms. It is dangerous to humans, animals and plants as it can cause breathing problems in people and decrease plant growth by damaging leaf cells. Small choices like biking instead of driving or using non-bleached paper and solvent-free paints can help reduce ozone levels and pollution.

Tropospheric ozone
Tropospheric ozone, also known as ground-level or "bad" ozone, forms when nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds react with sunlight in the air. It is a major air pollutant that poses risks to human health and the environment. Ground-level ozone is the main component of smog and can cause respiratory issues in humans as well as damage crops and other plants. While it is naturally occurring in small amounts, emissions from vehicles, power plants, chemical solvents and other sources are increasing tropospheric ozone levels globally with harmful effects. Reducing NOx and VOC emissions through international cooperation is needed to address the growing threat from tropospheric ozone pollution.
7.75 - Ozone Depletion
Ozone occurs naturally in both the troposphere and stratosphere. Stratospheric ozone is beneficial as it filters out UV radiation and protects life on Earth. However, certain man-made pollutants called ozone-depleting substances have led to a thinning of the ozone layer, especially over Antarctica where it forms an "ozone hole". This depletion increases UV radiation levels and poses risks to human health, agriculture, and marine life. In response, the 1989 Montreal Protocol was enacted to phase out ozone-depleting substances, though full recovery of the ozone layer is not expected until 2050.
ozone layer depletion
The document summarizes information about the ozone layer, including:
1. The ozone layer is found in the stratosphere and protects life on Earth by absorbing harmful UV radiation.
2. Ozone in the stratosphere ("good ozone") is important, while ground-level tropospheric ozone ("bad ozone") can harm health.
3. Ozone depletion is caused by ozone-depleting substances like CFCs released from products, and one chlorine atom can destroy 100,000 ozone molecules. Depletion is most severe over Antarctica.
Climate change
The document discusses carbon dioxide emissions by country and the results of carbon footprint tests taken by four students. It states the population and rate at which several countries including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, South Africa, and India produce 1000 tonnes of CO2. It then lists the individual carbon footprint results for students named Guido, Rosario, and Nicolás. In the conclusions, the students discuss ways to reduce their carbon footprints without losing quality of life but find new technologies are often unavailable or expensive and that their country is experiencing direct consequences of climate change like floods and changes in weather.
The ozone layer and its depletion
The document summarizes information about the ozone layer and its depletion. It discusses how the ozone layer protects the Earth from ultraviolet radiation from the sun. It then explains how chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were depleting the ozone layer when they were released into the atmosphere. CFCs break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere. The document also outlines observations that show the ozone layer depletion peaked around 2010 and is expected to fully recover by 2065 as CFC use has been restricted by the Montreal Protocol.
Ozone layer depletion ppt
The ozone layer absorbs most UV radiation from the sun. It contains high concentrations of ozone and is mainly located in the lower stratosphere. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other halogenated compounds released by human activities are the primary cause of ozone depletion by destroying ozone molecules. This has led to a 4% decline in ozone per decade and the formation of an ozone hole over Antarctica. Increased UV radiation due to ozone depletion poses risks to human health, animals, and crop production. The Montreal Protocol was adopted in 1987 to phase out ozone depleting substances to protect the ozone layer.
Climate change power point
Scientists have warned that the world's climate is changing rapidly due to human-caused greenhouse gas emissions, primarily from burning fossil fuels. The warming climate is causing glaciers to melt and stronger storms to form. While climate has changed naturally in the past, current changes are occurring faster and are driven by human activity. The climate refers to long-term weather patterns over years in a given location, while weather describes short-term outdoor conditions. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, trap heat and maintain the Earth's warm temperature.
Climate Change Presentation
The document discusses the major causes and effects of climate change. The main causes are natural factors like changes in Earth's orbit and methane release from tundra, as well as human factors such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, industrial pollution, and increased population. Some effects of rising temperatures include melting ice and glaciers, rising sea levels, more extreme weather, and disrupted animal habitats. The document also briefly mentions alternative energy sources and individual actions people can take to help address climate change.

Smog by Group 1
Smog is created by burning poor quality fuels, from transportation, and production activities. It is worsened by weather conditions like lack of wind. Smog persists during winter heating seasons in many countries. Particulate matter, especially fine particles (PM2.5), pose the greatest health risks as they can penetrate deep into lungs and bloodstream. Long term exposure to particulate matter is linked to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases as well as other health impacts. Protecting oneself from smog involves limiting outdoor activities during high pollution periods, proper ventilation, using anti-smog masks if vulnerable, and maintaining a healthy diet.
Acid Rain and Smog PPT

Ozone layer and.pptx
The document discusses the ozone layer, its importance in protecting the Earth from UV radiation, and depletion of the ozone layer. It notes that the ozone layer absorbs UV radiation between 15-30km above the Earth's surface. Depletion is caused by ozone-depleting substances like CFCs from refrigerants and aerosols. The 2021 ozone hole over Antarctica is similar in size to 2020, around 23 million sq km, and poses risks to human and environmental health like skin cancer and damage to plants and materials. International agreements like the Montreal Protocol aim to reduce use of ozone-depleting substances to prevent further depletion.
environmental harmful effects
Pollution occurs when harmful or excessive materials are added to the environment, making it unfit for life. There are various types of pollution including air, water, soil, noise, and light pollution. Air pollution is caused by the release of pollutants like carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter from sources such as vehicles, power plants, and industries. Water pollution occurs when harmful substances are discharged into rivers, lakes, and oceans, affecting water quality and organisms. Soil pollution degrades soil quality through erosion, excessive fertilizer and chemical use, acid rain, and industrial wastes. Strong regulations and public awareness are needed to control different types of pollution and protect the environment.

Smog by Nandita Chakraborty
Smog is a type of air pollution formed when emissions from burning fossil fuels like coal and oil react with oxygen and sunlight. It causes reduced visibility and health issues. There are two main types: London smog forms from coal burning and contains sulfuric acid, while photochemical smog forms in cities from vehicle and factory emissions reacting with sunlight to produce ozone. Smog causes eye and respiratory irritation and health problems, damages crops and buildings, and reduces visibility. To reduce smog, efforts should be made to conserve energy, use public transportation, and reduce emissions from vehicles and industry.
