Essays on Ozone depletion

The survival of humanity has always been dependent on functioning ecosystems and our natural resources. In the past hunter/gatherer societies had a low population density and were largely nomadic which gave the environment time to replenish and regenerated any resources that were used. As the population increased and humanity advanced, resources were depleted faster with…

ChlorofluorocarbonsChlorofluorocarbons are non-toxic, non-flammable chemicals that are mainly used in the manufacturing of aerosols, blowing agents for foams and packing materials, as solvents, and as refrigerants. They are classified as Halocarbons, a class of compounds that contain carbon and halogen atoms, and are amongst a group of substances called “greenhouse gases”. They eat away at…

Too much ultra-violet B radiation stops reproductive cycles of plankton called Phytoplankton. They’re single-celled…

Chloroflourocarbons were discovered in the 1920’s by Thomas Midgley, anorganic chemist at General Motors Corporation. He was looking for inert, non-toxic, non-flammable compounds with low boiling points that could be used asrefrigerants. He found what he was looking for in the form of two compounds:dichlorodifluoromethane (CFC-12) and trichloromonoflouromethane (CFC-11). Inboth compounds, different amounts of chlorine…
