主 题：Ozone Ozone Depletion Chloroflourocarbons (CFCs) Ultra Violet (UV) Radiations Bio-Effects
摘 要：This study was conducted at University of Gujrat during 2014-2015 as a term paper for Master of Philosophy. The data regarding effect of ozone depletion on human was reviewed and compiled as a review paper from various published articles of international reputed journals, annual/environmental reports of recognized organization and e-books.
