Which of the following cannot be plausibly linked to the destruction of the ozone layer? A. Damage to crops. B. Increased number of skin cancer cases. C. Genetic mutations. D. Increasing global CO2 concentrations.
Answer: D. Increasing global CO2 concentrations.
Ozone is supposed to increase CO2 by now allowing it to escape. So OZone increases CO2 concentration. SO depletion in ozone should decrease CO2 concentration which is not happening
