The aim of this presentation is to spread awareness regarding the threat to the ozone layer. Several important themes were discussed, most significantly: the composition of the ozone layer; causes of the ozone hole; the stages through which the hole has been formed and its effects. The presenters also discussed the causes of pollution and the relationship of such pollution to the formation of the ozone hole. Dr. Ahmed Murad presented the results of an experiment on gaseous concentrations in Al Ain that compared favorably with other local and global results.

The presenters also suggested medical advice such as the need for exposure to sunlight on a daily basis for about half an hour in order to raise vitamin D levels. This is important as many people in the UAE suffer vitamin D deficiency. They also highlighted the fact that the ozone hole is a decrease in ozone gas density in a specific atmospheric location. It covers nearly 15 million square kilometers of the Earth’s surface and allows harmful rays from the Sun to reach the Earth.
