Ozone (O3) Ozone Layer

a highly reactive gas that is composed of three
oxygen atoms, O3.
an irritating pale blue gas that is explosive and
toxic
occurs naturally on Earth’s Stratosphere, where it
absorbs ultraviolet radiation
also called as Ozonosphere
a thin layer of the Earth’s atmosphere that
absorbs almost all of the harmful ultraviolet
radiation given off by the sun
roughly 9 to 18 miles above Earth’s surface
effectively blocks almost all solar radiation of
wavelengths less than 290 nanometers from
reaching Earth’s surface

OZONE LAYER
-DEPLETION
gradual thinning of the earth's ozone layer in the upper atmosphere

WARNING: Major environmental problem: Increases the amount of ultraviolet radiation which increases the rate
of skin cancer, genetic and immune system changes

Factors of Ozone Layer Depletion Effects of the Ozone Layer Depletion

Chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs Effects on Human and Wildlife
Natural Causes or Calamities Effects on the Environment
Man-Made Causes Effects on Marine Wildlife

Methods Preventing Ozone Depletion
Limit Private Vehicle Driving
The Use of Eco-friendly household cleaning products
Reduce the Use of Commercial Pesticides
Prohibit the use of Aerosol propellants that contain CFCs
Avoid using Ozonolysis Purifiers.

CURRENT STATUS OF THE OZONE HOLE
The ozone layer's status today
And at the end of 2018, the United Nations confirmed in a
scientific assessment that the ozone layer is recovering,
projecting that it would heal completely in the (non-polar)
Northern Hemisphere by the 2030s, followed by the
Southern Hemisphere in the 2050s and polar regions by
2060.

GLOBAL
WARMING
a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth's atmosphere
The increase in the global temperature is caused by what is known as the “greenhouse effect” the
warming that occurs when certain gasses in the Earth’s atmosphere trap heat

Effects of Global Warming Effects of Climate Change
- direct effect of Global warming is Climate Change Changing weather conditions
-the long-term weather pattern of certain places Changes in Animal Migratiion and Life Cycles
begins the vary year to year and becomes Higher temoeratures and more heat waves
unpredictable Stronger storms
More droughts and wildfires
Changes in plant life cycle
Warmer oceans
Rising sea level

How to prevent Greenhouse Gases emissions?
1. Use less energy 2. Generate electricity without emissions
replacing incandescent light bulbs with LED bulbs solar energy
adding insulation to your home geothermal
efficient usage of thermostat wind turbines
ocean wave and tidal energy
waste and biomass energy
hydropower

DENR Administrative Order No. 2015-04
provides more stringent emission standards for carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbon, oxides of nitrogen, and
particulate matter to be complied with by new passenger, and light – and heavy – duty vehicles. For instance, the
Order sets an average CO emissions limit of 2.0 grams per kilometer (g/km) for gasoline – fed passenger and light –
duty vehicles instead of 2.2 g/km, and 0.9 g/km for those using diesel instead of 1.0 g/km. It also provides that all
new vehicles to be used or introduced into the Philippine market by January 2016 shall be equipped with Euro 4
engine and compliant with Euro 4 emission standards.
