If the accumulation of excess continues unchecked, it can lead to collapse of the body due to heart attack or stroke, or to accumulation of fats and toxic substances in the organs leading to cancer. A similar situation is developing in our environment, due to the inefficient use of carbohydrates in the form of animal protein and fat. Pollution caused by industry and the modern food system is contributing to the accumulation of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide, and toxic chemicals in the environment. The buildup of these substances threatens the earth's ecosystem with collapse. At the outer reaches of the atmosphere is found a very thin envelope of gas, ozone, that acts as a natural screen for the sun's rays.
Solar radiation polarizes into more yin ultraviolet and more yang infrared rays.
Ozone is a very yin gas made up of three atoms of oxygen. Because like repels like, it blocks or repels ultraviolet radiation while letting infrared rays pass through. Now, however, because of the modern diet and lifestyle, we are punching holes in the delicate layer of ozone high in the stratosphere. Once free, these chemicals float toward the heavens. Under the right conditions, the CFCs destroy ozone.
