Granted our planet is the third farthest planet from the sun‚ we still need protection. The chemicals we use‚ the exhaust fumes from vehicles and factories‚ and many other things affect this layer of protection. I have found some examples of what could possibly happen if we were to deplete our ozone any more than it already

ENVS0110 This week’s readings had the common theme of global climate change. All of these sources encompassed different aspects of climate change. John Houghton’s “The Greenhouse Effect” was more factual and scientific. S. Goerge Philander’s “The Ozone Hole‚ A Cautionary Tale” was informational too‚ however‚ the piece also discussed global reactions to the rapid climate change. Thomas R. Karl and Kevin E. TrenBerth’s “Modern Global Climate Change”‚ focused on the intensity of anthropogenic influences

waste products are not managed properly‚ it will cause a lot of bad influences to humans. The effects of improper waste management to humans are contamination of soil‚ floods‚ extinction of plants and animals‚ air contamination and depletion of ozone layer. Firstly‚ the improper waste management will bring up contamination of soil that will bring harms to humans. Normally waste products that can be recycled will be buried underground‚ so that they could contaminate the soil surrounding it. Carcinogen
