5) Describe the Greenhouse Effect and how it relates to ozone depletion.

Give examples
to support your argument
The Greenhouse Effect is the effect that created by human and the natural gases.
Human have made a lot of greenhouse gases which make the earth become warmer and
the temperature on the earth become unstable. Ozone depletion is the decreasing of the
ozone in the atmosphere. According to the large amount of greenhouse gases, the ozone
decreases its ability to filtrate the heat from the sun which makes the earth get a lot
warmer.
Greenhouse effect is the energy from the sun converts into heat when the heat
reaches the earth. Some of the heat is reflected by the earths atmosphere but some of the
heat is absorbed by the greenhouse gases and radiated to the earth. The ozone is the gas
that occurs in the Earths upper atmosphere and at ground level. The ozone is the
greenhouse gas that traps and reflects the heat from the sun and radiated the heat from the
sun and the Ozone depletion is the decreasing of ozone in the upper level of earth then
the heat can go through the ozone easier than the earth will get warmer causes of the
ozone depletion
Between the greenhouse effect and the Ozone depletion have something related in
them. First, the greenhouse effect is the process of absorbing and reflecting the heat from
the sun. Ozone depletion is the decreasing of Ozone and then the heat from the sun can
easily go through the ozone layer and make the Earth warmer and the temperature of the
earth will increase also. Another one is the Ozone depletion can make the protection of
UV decreases and the people will get the skin cancer from the ultra violet (UV) cause of
the greenhouse effect that human made.
There are many causes that created the ozone depletion and greenhouse effect is
the big factors of ozone depletion. The ozone depletion begins when the CFC are emitted
into the atmosphere and the CFCs are very stable then they cant dissolve in rain then the
CFC will stay in the atmosphere and when the sun radiates the heat, the CFC will get to
the earth and the earth will warm. For example, the heat from the sun travels to the earth
then the greenhouse gases to convert the solar energy to heat energy then the greenhouse
gases will radiate to the earth through the ozone then the ozone will absorb the stronger
UV light and long period of time the ozone will get depleted by a lot of heat from the
greenhouse effect.
Even through, the greenhouse effect is the process of energy from the sun convert
to heat and radiated to the earth. Some heat reflects through the atmosphere, while some
are absorbed by atmospheric gases then this one will make the ozone depletion by the
ozone is the greenhouse gases that absorb and block the heat to protect the damage from
the sun then if we have a lot of CFCs then this one will causes ozone depletion because
greenhouse effect is the process of produce heat then this will cause ozone depletion also.
However this was caused by the human that produce a lot of greenhouse gases then this
was the big factors of ozone depletion.
