The ozone layer is about 50,000 feet above the Earth's surface. This area filters out a great deal of our UV radiation. In the extremely unlikely event that this area would decay it would increase the UV-B radiation hitting the earth. The total ozone between the Sun and Earth's surface is equivalent to a layer of pure ozone gas about 3mm thick. UV-C and more energetic radiation is blocked by the large amounts of oxygen and nitrogen gas at the same altitude (and even higher).

What happens when the spaceship break through the ozone layer?
A spaceshit passing does not break ozone. It replenishes automatically unless altered chemically.
Does the ozone layer trap carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
It doesn't. The ozone layer has *nothing at all* to do with trapping CO2. Above the level of the ozone layer, intense radiation breaks CO2 down, so you get fooled into thinking the ozone layer had something to do with "trapping".
How long will it take until the Ozone layer breaks down if people don't do anything about it?
See "When will the ozone layer be gone?"
How the ozone layer happen?
The ozone layer happens by UV rays.They decompose and replenish it.
What breaks the ozone?
Ozone depletion is the process where ozone holes are created in the ozone layer. It is caused due to the action of chloro-floro-carbons on the ozone molecule to break it down to oxygen.
Can you explain how the ozone layer breaks?
The ozone layer breaks due to CFC's. They react with ozone to deplete it.

Explain the effects of cfc's on the ozone layer?
It breaks down ozone and have made parts of the ozone layer to weaken .
Will you die when the ozone layer breaks?
Yes, you will. There is a lot of time until the ozone breaks up.

How the ozone layer happen?
The ozone layer happens by UV rays.They decompose and replenish it.
What happens when the ozone layer is completed?
When the ozone layer is completed, mankind would perish. There is no life without ozone.
What happens in the holes of the ozone layer?
The hole in ozone layer is the thinning of ozone layer. It causes the harmful UV radiations of the sun to enter the earth's surface.
What happens when the ozone layer is damage?
When the ozone layer is damaged, it will cause UV entering the earth. These are the fatal radiations of the sun.
What breaks the ozone?
Ozone depletion is the process where ozone holes are created in the ozone layer. It is caused due to the action of chloro-floro-carbons on the ozone molecule to break it down to oxygen.
What happened to the ozone layer in global warming?
Global Warming and the Ozone Layer are completly different matters. So to sum things up nothing happens to the Ozone Layer in Global Warming.
