Whats the difference between good ozone and bad ozone?
“Good” ozone in the upper atmosphere occurs naturally. It is a protective layer that screens out harmful ultraviolet rays. “Bad” ozone at ground-level results from pollution that reacts in the presence of sunlight. It can harm people with respiratory disease, children and healthy adults that exercise outdoors. It also can harm vegetation and break down material with rubber compounds.
