Ozone (O3) is a constituent of the troposphere (it is also an important constituent of some regions of the stratosphere commonly known as the ozone layer). The troposphere extends from the Earth's surface to between 12 and 20 kilometers above sea level and consists of many layers. Ozone is more concentrated above the mixing layer, or ground layer. Ground-level ozone, though less concentrated than ozone aloft, is more of a problem because of its health effects.
Photochemical and chemical reactions involving it drive many of the chemical processes that occur in the atmosphere by day and by night. At abnormally high concentrations brought about by human activities (largely incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, such as gasoline, diesel, etc.), it is a pollutant, and a constituent of smog. Many highly energetic reactions produce it, ranging from combustion to photocopying. Often laser printers will have a smell of ozone , which in high concentrations is toxic. Ozone is a powerful oxidizing agent readily reacting with other chemical compounds to make many possibly toxic oxides.
Ground Level was an Australian-based electronic music performance and production duo: David John Walker (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) and Jean-Marie Guilfoil (Madison, Wisconsin, United States). Their single, "Dreams of Heaven" was an underground dance club release which peaked at No.54 on the mainstream UK Singles Chart in January 1993. They released an album, New Moon in 1995.
Background
Ground Level formed in Melbourne as the electronic duo of David John Walker and Jean-Marie Guilfoil. In 1990, they issued their first single, "Deputy of Love", as a 12" three-track under the name, Ground Level featuring D J Walker, on an independent label. By 1992, they had signed with Vicious Vinyl and released "God Intended" in January, which was written and produced by Walker. "Out of Body" appeared in June, followed by Ground Level's fourth single, "Dreams of Heaven", which peaked at No.54 on the UK Singles Chart in January 1993. According to Vicious Vinyl label owner, Andy Van (aka Andy Van Dorsselaer see Madison Avenue), the single was one of their biggest successes "[it] was a very, very big hit. It got to No.3 on the dance charts in the UK."

Ground Level Ozone & Health Risks
Ozone is found in two regions of the Earth's atmosphere, at ground level and in the upper regions of the atmosphere. Both types of ozone have the same chemical composition (O3) and while upper atmospheric ozone protects the earth from the sun's harmful rays, ground level ozone is the main component of smog and can cause health concerns.
Ground level ozone is created by chemical reactions between oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Ozone is likely to reach unhealthy levels on hot sunny days in urban environments, but has also been observed during cold months in some high elevation areas in the Western United States. Ozone can also be transported long distances by wind so even rural areas can experience high ozone levels.
Even relatively low levels of ozone ...

Ozone can also be transported long distances by wind so even rural areas can experience high ozone levels.
Even relatively low levels of ozone can cause health effects. People with lung disease, children, older adults and people who are active outdoors may be particularly sensitive to ozone.
Children are at greatest risk from exposure to ozone because their lungs are still developing and they are more likely to be active outdoors when ozone levels are high. Breathing ozone can trigger a variety of health problems including chest pain, coughing, throat irritation and congestion. It can worsen bronchitis, emphysema and asthma. Ground level ozone also can reduce lung function and inflame the linings of the lungs. Repeated exposure may permanently scar lung tissue.
Ozone also affects sensitive vegetation and ecosystems, including trees and plants during the growing season.
Emissions from industrial facilities and electric utilities, motor vehicle exhaust, gasoline vapors, and chemical solvents are some of the major sources of the gases that create ozone. Some ozone generators are sold as air cleaners, but as the EPA states, "No agency of the federal government has approved these devices for use in occupied spaces."
These are just a few things to know about ground level ozone and how it can impact a person's health. To learn more about this or other health & safety, environmental or indoor air quality issues, please visit the websites shown in the video.
