These gases can directly damage crop cells and indirectly affect them through their role as precursors to formation of ozone, an airborne toxin known to reduce crop yields, and particulate matter aerosols that can absorb and scatter sunlight away from crops. Nitrogen oxides, or NOx, are among the most widely emitted pollutants in the world.

For decades, scientists have closely observed the ozone layer , which protects Earth from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Ozone is created in our atmosphere when the sun’s high-energy UV rays rupture the stable covalent bonds of atmospheric oxygen (O2) molecules, transforming them into free radicals.

The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recognizes this, which is why for the 2019 American Fitness Index rankings, the ACSM added air quality as an environmental indicator of a city’s health. In fact, two of the most common pollutants are ozone and particles, like soot from wildfires. with the worst air quality.

On 16 September, the world marked the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer. The European Space Agency (ESA) takes a closer look at this year’s ozone hole. The ozone layer in the atmosphere protects Earth from potentially harmful ultraviolet radiation. Ozone depletion is greatest at the South Pole.
