INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR THE PRESERVATION OF OZONE LAYER - 16th SEPTEMBER 2020

16-09-2020

The ozone layer, a fragile shield of gas, protects the earth from the harmful portion of the rays of the sun, thus helping preserve life on the planet.

The phaseout of controlled uses of ozone depleting substances and the related reductions have not only helped protect the ozone layer for this and future generations, but have also contributed significantly to global efforts to address climate change; furthermore, it has protected human health and ecosystems by limiting the harmful ultraviolet radiation from reaching the Earth.

A video creating awareness on this day is presented by the Green Gyan- Eco Club of Indian school Sohar.
