THE PRESENT POSITION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY OF THE USA ON THE PROGRESS OF REGULATION TO PROTECT STRATOSPHERIC OZONE: APRIL 1983.
Summary
STRATOSPHERIC OZONE CAN DEPLETE DUE TO THE EVOLUTION OF SOME MATERIALS, INCLUDING HALOCARBONS (CFC). THIS POTENTIAL DANGER BROUGHT THE US ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY TO PROHIBIT AEROSOLS IN 1978. IN 1980, CFC PRODUCTION DECREASED BY 45% COMPARED TO 1974 AND INCREASED AFTERWARDS. SEVERAL COUNTRIES TAKE SIMILAR MEASURES. MEANWHILE, THE DATA SHOW THAT TOTAL COLUMN OZONE HAS PROBABLY INCREASED SLIGHTLY OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. ANY POLICY HAS TO RECOGNIZE THE REQUIREMENT OF CONTINUING RESEARCH AND MONITORING.
