Need for Public Awareness to Ozone Layer Depletion: A Sustainable Approach

Abstract

Our environment affected by various human activities, ozone layer depletion is one of them. Ozone layer in stratosphere protects life on earth from exposure to dangerous levels of UV light. The ozone layer depletes are CFC, halons, methyl bromide and nitrous oxide. The depletion of ozone layer leads to higher levels of UV radiation reaching earth’s surface & causes skin cancer, cataracts, impaired immune system & also reduced crop yields. This paper discuss the origin , causes, effects, various ways adopted for management of this problem & focused a need for involvement of international population [public awareness] over the management of ozone layer depletion.
