Int’l Day for the Preservation of the #OzoneLayer is being observed today across the globe. Life on our planet as we know would not be possible without the ozone layer. Ozone is a highly reactive gas found in the upper layers of the atmosphere and protects life on earth from the Sun’s harsh ultraviolet rays.
Ozone protects life but it can also be harmful in concentrated quantities near the surface of the earth as it is produced when air pollutants react in sunlight.
As we observe World Ozone Day on September 16, it is important to remember the delicate balance in our atmosphere. This year The theme of #WorldOzoneDay2020 is “Ozone for Life: 35 years of ozone layer protection”
