The study determined that ozone levels in some major US cities are increasing by that amount, due in part to climate change. The annual averages of ozone levels in study areas were between about 10 and 25 ppb. Rates of chronic lung disease in this country are going up and increasingly it is recognized that this disease occurs in nonsmokers.
