What was the cause of the thinning of the ozone layer and what action was taken to
reduce this effect?
own words describe how acid rain is produced and how it damages
Answers
Answer:
CAUSE OF THINNING OZONE LAYER,
Ozone depletion occurs when chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and halons—gases formerly found in aerosol spray cans and refrigerants—are released into the atmosphere (see details below). ... CFCs and halons cause chemical reactions that break down ozone molecules, reducing ozone's ultraviolet radiation-absorbing capacity.
ACTION TAKEN TO PROTECT,
How can we protect the ozone layer? Avoid the consumption of gases dangerous to the ozone layer, due to their content or manufacturing process. Some of the most dangerous gases are CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons), halogenated hydrocarbon, methyl bromide and nitrous oxide. Minimize the use of cars..
ACID RAIN PRODUCES AND DAMAGES,
It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals, and infrastructure. Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulphur dioxide dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids.
