On the 30th International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer, also known as World Ozone Day, China's Ministry of Ecology and Environment announced its continued dedication to safeguarding the ozone layer. In line with the Montreal Protocol and its Kigali Amendment, China is set to establish a comprehensive hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) lifecycle management system.
This initiative underscores China's proactive role in phasing out ozone-depleting substances and addressing global climate challenges. By strengthening international cooperation, China aims to contribute significantly to the global effort in protecting the Earth's atmosphere and ensuring a sustainable future.
Established on September 16, 1987, the Montreal Protocol has been pivotal in reducing the production and use of harmful substances that deplete the ozone layer. China's latest announcement reaffirms its position as a leader in environmental stewardship among G20 nations, highlighting its commitment to long-term climate action.
