Ozone

            Antarctic Ozone Hole Reaches Record Size.
            
             The United Nations" weather organization came out with a report about the hole in the ozone layer. The hole in the ozone layer has now increased to its record size of 10.8 million square miles set only three tears ago. The World Meteorological Organization have also taken measurements over and near Antarctic. They claim that the ozone layer has decreased faster in this year than in any previous years and is now the same size as it was in 2000. They also claimed that the hole could also continue to grow to its largest size ever in the span of about two weeks, but it can also suddenly decrease in that same amount of time. .
             These claims made by the United Nations" weather organization and the WMO have made me more aware of what is happening to our world. The increased size of the hole in the ozone is created by the use of common pollutants such as fuel and CFC's. I think we should all try to cut back on using these sources as much as we can and warn other people about what most of the world is doing to our atmosphere. Global warming has been a concern of mine for a couple of years and I think it is time we start cutting back on these common pollutants and start thinking about how this "hole" is going dramatically effect us all. .
