There is a medical treatment called "ozone therapy" where ozone gas is used to disinfect areas around an already infected area, improves the bodies intake and use of oxygen, and activating the immune system. #ozonetherapy#ozone
The link to the article below is mostly about how air pollution is causing climate change although it is depleting the ozone layer as well. https://t.co/TNlJE0UsR1
Refrigerants that contain chlorine as one of the atoms in their compounds play a part in ozone depletion. @UNIDO and @MoENVJo have implemented a better system for the retail sector in Jordan. https://t.co/10DmPJJFOK
@Jaden29804469 CFC's are a gas made of chlorine, bromine and carbon that is usually used in refrigerants and aerosol propellants. This relates to my topic because the reaction with CFC's and ultra violet radiation generates the release of chlorine causing the ozone layer to deplete.
@ginrob_pt I think they were thought of that way because they were so cheap to manufacture and had very little downsides to them. I also think that if someone knew what they would cause, they would have said something earlier rather than hiding it.
If CFC's had not been banned, some parts of the world would be virtually inhabitable by 2065. Places such as southern Germany and Washington D.C. would have UV radiation up to 650%. Thats enough to cause a sunburn in 5 minutes.
