high in the atmosphere some oxygen (O2) molecules absorb energy from the sun's ultra violet(UV) rays and split to form single oxygen atoms , these atoms combined with remaining oxygen (O2) to form ozone (O3) molecule which are very effective at absorbing UV rays


the damage of ozone layer is cause of concern to is because ozone layer protects life in earth by absorbing harmful UV rays coming from sun this UV rays cause skin cancer
