Concluding Thoughts. Ozone is found in two different layers of the atmosphere-the troposphere and the stratosphere. The stratospheric ozone, or good ozone, protects life on earth from harmful effects of the sun's UV rays. We have good reason to be concerned about the thinning of the ozone layer in the stratosphere.
Ozone is not directly emitted into the atmosphere but forms when oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are in the air and sunlight is present.
