Ozone Layer

The ozone layer in the Earth's atmosphere absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiation from the Sun, which can cause skin cancer on exposure and even disrupt crop yields and food production.

Scientists said Tuesday that international efforts to protect the ozone layer had been a "huge global success" after revealing that damaging gases in the atmosphere were declining faster than expected.

The ultraviolet radiation from the Sun increase the risk of skin cancer and cataracts in humans, but researchers do not yet know if the same is true for Antarctic mammals and birds.

In a mind-boggling discovery, scientists have found that a supernova explosion billions of light years away was so powerful that it "temporarily destroyed" some of the Earth's ozone layer in 2022.

World Ozone Day 2023: The theme of World Ozone Day 2023 is ''Montreal Protocol: Fixing the Ozone Layer and Reducing Climate Change.''

A co-recipient of the 1995 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, Mr Molina is credited with successfully convincing governments to come together to save the planet's ozone layer.

The smoke triggered by the wildfires went to heights of upto 30 kilometres, where the smoke triggered chemical reactions harming atmospheric ozone.

The scientists hope that if the current trends are followed, the ozone layer is expected to recover to 1980 levels by the year 2040.

Scientists have discovered an ozone hole in the earth’s lower stratosphere that is comparable in depth — but seven times larger — to the springtime Antarctic ozone hole. The large, all-season ozone hole has been detected over the tropics, which make up half of the Earth's surface area and are home to about half the planet’s population. The ...

A team of scientists have reconstructed the condition in which the earliest organism on Earth must have existed. The reconstruction was done using light-capturing proteins in living microbes. In future studies, the scientists hoped to resurrect model rhodopsins in a laboratory using synthetic biology techniques.

As pollution continues to destroy our ozone layer, being in the sun becomes more and more dangerous. In this article, we discuss how.

International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer: A fragile shield of gas protects the Earth from the harmful rays of the sun. But this shield, called the ozone layer, is threatened by industrial and other forms of pollution.

Amazon Prime Day sale 2021 is starting on Monday, July 26, and will continue through July 27. If you've been looking to buy some new household gadgets like air conditioners, purifiers, or maybe a smart vacuum, there are some great deals to look forward to. Here are some good deals we know of already.

Ozone Day 2020: 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. World Ozone Day is observed on September 16 every year. This year the slogan for World Ozone Day is 'Ozone For Life'...

World Ozone Day is observed on September 16. The day is meant to raise awareness about the importance of ozone layer and how its depletion is leading to global warming and climate change across the world.
