Abstract
Imagine if the earth's protective atmosphere did not exist and the earth was subjected to the harmful ultraviolet energy from the sun. Life as we know would not exist. Changes in the earth's layer of atmospheric ozone may be occurring as a result of human activities. This is generating concerns in the community about increases in terrestrial ultraviolet radiation and the associated adverse effects on humans, plants and animals.
