Environmental Safety of Biosphere

Abstract

Abstract The present paper researches the matter of human impact on atmosphere that is currently the focus object of specialists and environment researchers all over the World. And it is not a coincidence as the most significant environmental problems of today - the “greenhouse effect”, ozone layer depletion, acid rains are in relation with the anthropogenic pollution of atmosphere. The paper also touches upon the impact of atmosphere pollution on human health and environment. There are considered various means of pollution – from direct and immediate threats (smog, etc.) to slow and gradual destruction of various organism life support systems. In many cases air pollution erodes ecosystem structural components to a degree when regulatory processes are unable to restore the initial state that causes homeostasis mechanism failure.
