part of the atmosphere (also known as the 'troposphere') due to increasing concentrations of heat-trapping gases. By contrast, the ozone hole refers to the loss of ozone in the upper part of the atmosphere, called the stratosphere. This is of serious concern because stratospheric ozone blocks incoming ultra­violet radiation from the sun, some of which is harmful to plants, animals, and humans.

Reducing ozone-depleting gases is crucial to preventing further de­struction of the ozone layer, but eliminating these gases alone will not solve the global warming problem. Efforts to reduce all types of emissions will also be required.
