“This is good news which shows that we can manage to improve things”, the climatologist and research director at the CNRS Didier Hauglustaine, while the ozone layer, which protects the Earth dangerous solar radiation, is “on track” to recover, according to a report by scientists released Monday under the aegis of the UN.
The Montreal Protocol (Canada), signed in 1987 and ratified by 195 countries, has greatly reduced the amount of chlorofluorocarbons in the atmosphere, and the ozone layer seems likely to recover within forty years, according to estimates from the ‘UN. “It shows that the protocol signed in 1987 has worked and that these ozone-destroying gases have diminished in the atmosphere and slowly the ozone is healing,” he continued.
The climatologist adds, however, that “it is much more complicated to act on global warming because we are talking about a change in all of society”.
