nAnothernreason to talk about the importance of sunscreen is the depletion ofnthe ozone layer. That means that more ultraviolet light is gettingnthrough to the surface than in past decades and centuries. Hopefully,npeople are no longer using ozone-depleting substances anywhere in thenworld, and the ozone layer can repair itself. According to the U.S. EPA, if everyone follows the guidelines established, the ozonenlayer should be healed by about 2050.
