  1. There would be an increase in skin cancer in humans.  An increase in the size of a hole in the ozone layer would allow the harmful UV-B rays (more harmful than the UV-A rays) of the sun to penetrate to the Earth.

    Excessive UV-B inhibits the growth processes of almost all green plants. There is concern that ozone depletion may lead to a loss of plant species and reduce global food supply. Any change in the balance of plant species can have serious effects, since all life is interconnected. Plants form the basis of the food web, prevent soil erosion and water loss, and are the primary producers of oxygen and a primary sink (storage site) for carbon dioxide.
