Journal Article · · Science
OSTI ID:209986

This article explores the reality of whether the Montreal Protocol to protect the ozone layer has worked. The prime evidence for the success of the 1987 Protocal is that atmospheric chlorine has peaked and is on the way down. However, there are some concerns that gaps in the existing protocal could slow the recovery.
