Issues - Ozone Layer

One of the most common greenhouse gases, CFC is not natural. The normal greenhouse gases now pose a critical danger because of the larger than normal amounts and the constant production. In the eighties scientists publicized the issue that CFCs were damaging the ozone layer. New Zealand was reporting an alarming reduction in the amphibian population which was correlated to the rise in ultraviolet radiation that was reaching the earth through the reduced ozone layer in that area of the world. The human population was at risk for higher incidence of skin cancer. Greenhouse gases are those gases that retain heat in the atmosphere. Carbon Dioxide(CO2), Methane, Ozone, Nitrous Oxide, CFC.
