NASA and EU Report Massive Arctic Ozone Loss Scientists from NASA and the European Union blamed the long, cold winter and human-made pollution for one of the largest ozone losses to record. The study was conducted between January and March with the use of NASA’s high-tech ER-2 plane. This plane is able to reach high altitudes in order to check for ozone depletion. The measurements taken by the ER-2 concluded that the ozone above …showed first 75 words of 260 total…
