Introduction 
The ozone layer or ozone shield is a region of Earth's stratosphere that
absorbs most of the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It contains high
concentrations of ozone (O3) in relation to other parts of the atmosphere,
although still small in relation to other gases in the stratosphere.
Ozone Depletion
The ozone layer is mainly found in the lower portion of the stratosphere from approximately
20 to 30 kilometres (12 to 19 mi) above earth, though the thickness varies seasonally and
geographically.
