Another problem that we have to face with is the size of ozone layer. The ozone layer that protects the Earth’s surface from harmful ultraviolet radiation is damaged by CFCs (chloro-fluorocarbons). CFCs are substances that come from refrigerators‚ aerosol cans and other products. When we use this products‚ we free CFCs which go into the atmosphere and destroy the ozone layer which protects us from ultraviolet radiation. The smaller the ozone layer the stronger the radiation which leads to skin burning

Warming happens naturally however because of the human race we have increased how fast it’s happening. There have been many meetings with other nations to control the amount of carbon-dioxide released. Along with the release of CFC’s that hurt our ozone. The Ozone deflects 99% of the UV rays which cause a variety of disease. We all know that it is bad but because most people don’t know what to do to help their environment. Well it’s the simple things like recycling and reducing your carbon-foot print.
