Ozone Day
Every year, the world celebrate 16th September as “International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer”.
The theme of World Ozone Day 2019 is ’32 years and Healing’. This year’s theme celebrates three decades of remarkable international cooperation to protect the Ozone Layer and the climate under the Montreal Protocol. It also reminds the people to keep up the momentum to ensure healthy people and a healthy planet.
Ozone is responsible for shielding the UV rays from sun; its depletion may cause severe health hazards. Ozone depletion also impacts the environment adversely by altering the life cycles of plants and disrupting the food chain. Microscopic organisms such as plankton may not survive hence animals dependent on planktons will also not be able to survive. Depletion of ozone layer may result in change in wind pattern, leading global warming hence resulting in climatic changes all over the world.
