"Ozone layer recovery delayed, surface UV radiation continues to rise, finds study
According to a new study published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, the ozone isn't healing as quickly as expected, leading to higher levels of surface ultraviolet (UV) radiation in recent years.
Despite projections that the ozone layer would fully recover by mid-century, researchers found rising UV radiation levels in the tropics and northern mid-latitudes after 2010, posing risks to human health and the environment."

Herbarium specimens past and present show plants changing the amount of UV pigments in their flowers. This may be in response to changing levels of ozone and a changing climate.
