The day aims to raise awareness about protecting the ozone layer.
The ozone layer protects Earth by reducing harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching its surface.
The day commemorates the Montreal Protocol, an international agreement adopted in 1987 to reduce ozone-depleting substances.
The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) established World Ozone Day in 1994, and it was first observed in 1995.
The Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol promotes sustainable cooling and helps reduce the climate impact of refrigerants.
