The human health effects of ozone depletion and interactions with climate change.

TL;DR: Current methods for protecting the eye and the skin from the adverse effects of solar UV radiation are evaluated, including seeking shade, wearing protective clothing and sunglasses, and using sunscreens, while vitamin D is starting to be assessed for its protective properties against several infectious and coronary diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental effects of ozone depletion, UV radiation and interactions with climate change: UNEP Environmental Effects Assessment Panel, update 2017

Germar Bernhard, +41 more
TL;DR: The present 2017 Update Report assesses some of the highlights and new insights about the interactive nature of the direct and indirect effects of UV radiation, atmospheric processes, and climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects on human health from stratospheric ozone depletion and its interactions with climate change

TL;DR: There is accumulating evidence that UVR exposure, either directly or via stimulation of vitamin D production, has protective effects on the development of some autoimmune diseases, including multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Health effects from stratospheric ozone depletion and interactions with climate change.

TL;DR: The potential health effects of elevated levels of ambient UV-B radiation are diverse, and it is difficult to quantify the risks, especially as they are likely to be considerably modified by human behaviour as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ozone depletion, ultraviolet radiation, climate change and prospects for a sustainable future

Paul Barnes, +38 more
TL;DR: The Montreal Protocol has also played an important role in mitigating climate change as discussed by the authors, and the Montreal Protocol will continue to have far-reaching benefits for human well-being and environmental sustainability.
