Worldwide concern has
developed in recent years
over
the environmental quality
Of the stratosphere, that
region
of the Earth's atmosphere
beginning above cloud
tops at about
12 kilometers (8 miles)
and extending to approximately
50 km
(30 mi.). The stratosphere is a
very fragile and important
portion of the Earth's
environment; its ozone,
for example,
is known to protect the
Earth and its inhabitants
from much
of the Sun's ultraviolet
(UV) radiation.
