A. Ozone, sometimes called smog, is a molecule of 3 oxygen atoms that is highly irritating to the lungs. Breathing in ozone is like having sunburn on your lungs. When ozone is inhaled, the body’s lung tissues become inflamed or swollen. Breathing ozone can cause coughing and asthma attacks and send people to the emergency room or hospital. Ozone can even shorten your life.
