Ozone pollution, typically associated with warm weather and strong sunlight, has begun to manifest alarmingly in winter. This ...
In recent years, scientists had been alarmed by a sudden unexplained rise in ozone attacking chemicals in the atmosphere. Higher levels of trichlorofluoromethane, also known as CFC-11, were ...
In contrast to chemicals containing chlorine and bromine, nitrogen oxides destroy ozone globally between 25 and 35 km. Nitrous oxide behaves in a similar way to chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs): it is ...
Compounds with a chlorine or bromine moiety (e.g., halothane, isoflurane, chlorofluorocarbons) can deplete the atmospheric ozone layer, resulting in increased ultraviolet radiation reaching the earth.
Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer The scientific confirmation of the depletion of the ozone layer prompted the international community to establish a mechanism for ...
Reaction formation is a defense mechanism in which people express the opposite of their true feelings, sometimes to an exaggerated extent. For instance, a man who feels insecure about his ...
Here the authors report a scandium-catalyzed anti-Markovnikov hydroallylation reaction of styrene derivatives with 1-aryl-2-alkyl alkenes and α-alkenes for the synthesis of chain elongated ...
NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks rose Tuesday after more companies said they made bigger profits at the end of last year than analysts expected and as Treasury yields eased. The S&P 500 climbed 0.9% ...
Georgia aims at an overall reduction of the most harmful ozone-depleting substances - Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) by 67.5% and 97.5% in 2025 and 2030 respectively.
