**e. Impact of ozone on climate change**

Ozone is a major pollutant in the majority of industrialized countries and its increasing concentration is dependent on climate variability and change. The Republic of Haiti, like many other poor, undeveloped countries, is experiencing the consequences of the impact of ozone on climate change, which are more attributable to the actions of neighboring industrialized countries than to its own agricultural and industrial production activities. Rising temperatures could result in local increases in peak ozone and fine particulate matter levels [45].
