• Stratospheric Ozone

• Tropospheric Ozone

What type of Ozone is this describing: The ozone layer in the second layer of the Earth’s atmosphere.  It can absorb ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. Without this ozone layer, no organisms could survive.

• Stratospheric Ozone

• Tropospheric Ozone

What chemical was causing the Ozone Layer to start breaking down, as this chemical wasn't allowing the O2 & O to recombine into O3?
