I wonder, greenhouse gases can increase holes in the ozone layer. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane are produced and released through burning fossil fuels and deforestation of the environment. These gases build up in the atmosphere and trap heat from the sun increasing the global temperature.
This is described as global warming. Dis increased temperature can cause ice caps to melt and increase the risk of forest fires. These greenhouse gases can also affect the ozone layer, de it, or creating a bigger hole in the ozone, which reduces how protected we are from the sun.
