I invite everyone to work together to protect ozone because of its important role for Ozone is now depleting, the impact is very bad for the preservation of nature, namely damage to marine life, stunted plant growth, cancer and cataracts in humans, disease in animals etc. The Montreal Protocol aims to reduce the use of Destructive Substances Ozone is commonly found in air conditioners, refrigerators, hair spray, chair foam, etc. Let's apply ozone loving behavior by choosing products that don't contain ODS, buy them with the CFC and HCFC free logo, routine air conditioning maintenance, planting trees, reducing use car etc. Let's protect ozone for a better life.
The Montreal Protocol and Kigali Amendment like powerful hands protecting and caring for all life under the sun by slowing climate change and helping to boost energy efficiency in cooling sectors. These global agreements keeping us, our food and vaccines cool.
