World Ozone Day: Protecting Our Planet's Shield

World Ozone Day, celebrated on September 16, commemorates the signing of the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer in 1987. The ozone layer, a protective shield in Earth's atmosphere, absorbs most of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation, safeguarding life on Earth.

This day raises awareness about the importance of the ozone layer and the global efforts to protect it. The Montreal Protocol is hailed as one of the most successful environmental treaties, phasing out the use of ozone-depleting substances (ODS). The protocol's ongoing efforts also contribute to combating climate change.
