Topic
Climate change and air pollution is the key topic addressed in the article. The present era is experiencing an increasing effect of climate change affecting every sphere of the atmosphere. The effect is deteriorating the air quality, as particulate matter is released into the atmosphere, affecting the biosphere’s life. The article addresses how the ground ozone layer’s quality is changing, affecting the overall ozone layer compliance and air quality.

Main Idea
The air quality can impact climate change, as climate change also impacts air quality. This makes the subjects intertwined as one may lead to the other.

Supporting Evidence
Particulate matter in the atmosphere affects the quality of air.
Particulate matter in the atmosphere leads to the cooling and heating effect, leading to climate change.
Atmospheric warming affects the ozone layer’s level and composition, thus affecting the air quality on the surface and the ozone level compliance in the region.

Questions
What measures can be put in place to reduce the amount of particulate matter in the atmosphere?
Are the particulate mattes the only cause of climate change and air quality deterioration in the atmosphere?
The ozone layer is known for protecting earth’s surface from direct sunlight; what is the impact of the ozone layer at the ground levels?
