ozono

ozono

El ozono se compone de tres átomos de oxígeno. Tiene beneficios y peligros dependiendo de donde en la atmósfera se produce: cerca del nivel del suelo, es un contaminante que afecta la respiración, 10 y 50 kilómetros arriba, en la estratosfera, la capa de ozono filtra los rayos ultravioleta potencialmente dañinos (que causan cáncer de piel) de llegar a la tierra. El ozono también funciona como un gas de efecto invernadero, aunque se considera uno menos potente que el CO2.
