True or false? the fatal 1930 incident in muese valley, belgium, was associated with leakage of toxic chemicals from a former dump site.

FALSE                            

Explanation:

The incident of Muese Valley occured in 1930 due to air pollution.

Muese Valley lies along the river Muese which is situated Huy and Liege, Belgium. This region was crowded with industries including steel manufacturers, glass manufacturers, explosives plants, zinc smelter, etc.

The increase number of industries and population lead to the sources of pollution. Also increase in burning of domestic coal increased pollution surrounding the area.

Air pollution became so severe at this region that people have severe  respiratory problems. Residents suffered from vomiting, retrosternal pain, coughing fits and several experienced nausea. There were fog and smog all over and many people died.

Hence the answer is FALSE.

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.
