Impacts of Climate Change, Guide Table, Ozone depletion describes the…

- - - - Increased rate of skin cancer, eye cataracts and genetic/immune system damage
        
        Further cases of excessive contact towards concentrated solar radiation could lead to fatal occasions such as
      - The decrease of ozone concentration located in the earth's atmosphere could also posses positive impacts towards the human health. Breathing elevated concentrations of ozone could potentially damage the bronchitis and trigger a variety of responses such as chest pain, coughing, throat irritation as well as airway inflammation. The reduction of ozone decreases rates of this occurrence
        
        The reduction of ozone concentration could prevent further fatal cases of emphysema, asthma, bronchitis and airway inflammation
        
        With the decreasing quantity of ozone concentration, there would be a lower case of cases such as emphysema, asthma, and airway inflammation, lowering the need and cost for medical care.
  - - - The destruction of coral reefs would lead to a decreased popularity in coral tourism.
        
        Indonesia is considered the most effected country towards this upcoming issue, as they stand the position of holding the greatest amount of coral reefs in an area; 12.5% of the entire world
      - Coral reefs hold approximately 25% of all marine life. The destruction of coral reefs lead to massive decrease in marine species and diversity
  - - - Flooding rates would increase drastically due to rising ocean levels and increased rainfall surrounding major sub-urban countries.
      - Coastal areas would begin to sink as a result of rising water levels
        
        One of the fastest sinking coastal areas in the world include Jakarta, with its water level increasing at a total amount of 2.5 cm a year; 2.5 metres in 10 years by 2020.
    - - Some of these species include
        
        Polar Bears
        
        Walruses
        
        Salmon
        
        Arctic Foxes
        
        Penguins
    - - Greenland has been stated to have lost 586 billion tonnes of ice by the end of 2019 due to climate change
  - - - This increase in atmospheric temperature would further lead to an increased rate of wildfires and natural forest fire, further depleting our forests and cause problems towards oxygen production to the earth
        
        The reaction between oxygen and flamable substances contained in trees, such as cellulose, produces carbon dioxide which highly contributes to climate change, and cause health issues towards citizens around the world
        
        Major Health defects
        
        Increased respiratory and cardiovascular diseases
        
        Minor Health Defects
        
        headaches
        
        Dizziness
        
        Restlessness
        
        Breathing Difficulty
      - Heatwaves can further cause health problems such as heatstrokes as well as dehydration primarily in equatorial countries
- - - - Increase in fossil fuel consumption emits higher quantities of sulfer dioxide emissions, and are a major cause towards acid rains
  - - - Major decrease in the world's overall population can further be spotted further due to this increased case of famine
- - - - Dengue Fever
      - Malaria
      - West Nile Virus
      - Cholera
      - E. Coli
      - Japanese Encephalitis
