Summary

The Montreal Protocol is entering the new millennium with the definite goal of finishing the remaining job quickly. The stratospheric ozone layer has not yet recovered - it may well take most of the next century for that to happen. The world community, however, can at least be proud of the initial chapters of this story. These chapters will serve as the driving force to face the remaining challenges. How large is this initial element of success in terms of hard numbers and what remains to be done? This article presents an overview of the experiences so far and explains the role of UNEP.
