I need every help I can get!

I need to know all about the layers in the atmosphere and the function and structure of ozon including cimate issues. To be more specific about the layers, I need to know what they consist of, where they have their names from and why, temperature and what functions they have.

Please help! (It is for a lecture in my geography class)

Your friend, Google

It's truly amazing what it can find for you!

Since you want to know about the layers in the atmosphere, why to google on 'atmosphere layer'? Just to increase your chances, add 'stratosphere' (that's the name of one of the layers).
 
have you not had physical science. If not I am sure there is one in your school book store. Everything you need to know for your lecture should be covered in one chapter.
