b. Ozone depletion
c. Acid rain
d. Mutation​

Answer 1

hazard of global warming except d. Mutation

Answer 2

Analysis of observations and models has shown that ozone depletion led to changes in springtime precipitation in the South Pacific Ocean, Australia, and New Zealand over the 1961–1996 period.10 These changes range from −25% to +40%, depending on location. Variability among models is large but all models indicate a consistent pattern of changes over this region. Qualitative agreement between models and measurements suggests that these effects on precipitation will likely reverse when ozone recovers in the future.

Simulations by a climate model demonstrated that stratospheric ozone depletion has led to an increase in extreme precipitation and a decrease in extreme temperature over southeastern South America in the second half of the twentieth century.11 It has been suggested12 that the recently observed climate changes in the Southern Hemisphere in the summer and autumn are associated with ozone depletion, which affects circulation in the lower stratosphere and tropopause regions in the Southern Hemisphere through these seasons.
