beneficial or possibly dire consequences. Aerosols play a large role in cooling the surface of the earth, counteracting global warming, medicine, and therefore nothing should be done to eliminate them. Many types of aerosols have a cooling effect on the Earth, such as the aerosols produced from the burning of fossil fuels. The aerosols produced from this are known to partially counteract global warming caused by various greenhouse gases. In order to say that aerosols cool the earth, we have to explore the

with the general deterioration of the environmental situation, climate change, pollution of the atmosphere and the aquatic environment, a problem has arisen associating with the effects on the human health of excessive ultraviolet irradiation. The global process of degradation of the Earth's ozone layer, one of the manifestations of which is the formation of "ozone holes", led to the disruption of the usual mode of natural UV radiation. The sun is the main source of optical radiation coming to the
