Hey peeps just going through my stuff and noticed that i have information on the "harmful effects of UV radiation". It states a dot point, but i can't find it in the the new syllabus :S Would i be right in leaving this one out when studying?

"harmful effects of UV radiation"

just know that it causes cancer
u really need to know how it forms and how its depleted, thats all

EDIT: I meant to say how ozone forms and is depleted and how that would relate to the increased effects of UV radiation

How UV forms and is depleted? Sure you aren't talking about ozone?

Usually it's ozone that destroys UV. You sure thats what you meant? And stuff on photochemical smog couldn't hurt
