Learning the lessons of a decade. Produced
on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the
Montreal Protocol, the video describes the past
achievements of the global community regarding
ozone layer protection. It shows the chronology
of initiatives taken after scientists discovered
the existence of the ozone hole in 1974. The film
reminds viewers of the several international agreements
signed from the Vienna Convention in 1985 to the
Montreal Protocol in 1987. This video is useful
in tracing the general history of the first phase
of ozone layer protection and highlights the need
for the global community to continue to work collectively
to meet its commitments under the Montreal Protocol.
This video, produced by TVE
International, was developed as part of UNEP's
Work Programme under the Multilateral
Fund for Implementation of the Montreal Protocol.
