The benefits of research of the ozone layer and of studying other species
are very important for humans and for Canadians especially. The significance
for Canada is that it has a huge landmass and vegetation in the north that
could be effected by a significant change of the ozone layer. Therefore
resaerch is of great interest for Canada, changes just happen 20 km away
from us. 

Spinoffs are seen in the opportunity to establish Churchill as an important
launch place. The final aim to fly an ozone monitoring instrument on a
microsatellite to measure global ozone distribution in almost realtime is of
high importance if the ozone depletion continues. People would have the
opportunity to see the thickness of the ozone layer on tv, in the newspaper,
on radio and on the internet. So they can decide by themselves if they want
to expose themselves to sunlight or not at a specific day. The other advantage 
of publishing the data in real time on the internet is the fact that each 
individual can obtain the information whenever he wants. 
To provide each 
individual with the opportunity to obtain information about health risks he 
might expose himself to, should be of high priority for public financed 
research. A global ozone monitoring system is one step in this direction.
