2023 World Ozone Day (WOD)  - Theme: MONTREAL PROTOCOL: fixing the ozone layer and reducing climate change

On 19 December 1994, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed 16 September the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer, commemorating the date, in 1987, on which the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was signed.
