Earth’s Ozone Layer Recovers as Airborne Chemicals Decline
U.N. finds thickening in atmospheric region, helping protect humans and slowing climate change

From the Wall Street Journal Instagram post description:
Airborne chemicals that destroy ozone are now declining for the first time, helping to repair the atmospheric layer that protects humans from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays, according to a new report by a U.N.-backed panel of scientists.⁠

In a report released Monday by the United Nations Environment Program and the World Meteorological Organization, researchers found a significant thickening of the ozone layer, a region of the atmosphere from 9 to 18 miles high that absorbs ultraviolet rays (UV) and prevents them from reaching the Earth’s surface.⁠

This layer has been fragile for decades as the result of chemicals used as refrigerants and propellants that destroy ozone, a compound made of three oxygen molecules. When these long-lasting chemicals mix with cold temperatures and meteorological conditions above Antarctica, the reaction creates an ozone hole over the region each spring that varies in size and depth each year.⁠

The thickening of the ozone layer means more protection for humans and other life.⁠

Excess UV rays can lead to skin cancer, cataracts and impaired immune-system function, according to health studies, while damaging the growth of crops and ocean phytoplankton.⁠
