For the first time in history, on Oct. 26th “the U.S. joined a legally binging global measure specifically to combat climate change.”
The Montreal Protocol was established at a meeting of the United Nations in 1987 and has over time evolved to not only phase-out Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which were deemed the most harmful to the ozone layer at the time but also to reduce and eliminate Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and Hydrofluorocarbons which replaced CFCs, but also contribute negatively to climate change.
The United Nations Environment Program estimates “the Montreal Protocol will prevent over 443 million cases of skin cancer, 2.3 million skin cancer deaths, and 63 million cataracts" in the United States alone.
Researchers have found that roughly 2.5 °C of warming by 2100 is being averted by aspects of the Montreal Protocol unrelated to HFCs.
The Montreal Protocol is an example of a rare huge success of diplomacy and treaties concerning climate change.
We can still do more. We can reduce methane emissions and carbon emissions. One of the easiest ways that we can reduce carbon emissions by reducing energy consumption with more sustainable air filters and air filtrations systems as 13% of Canada’s green house gas emissions are from the buildings sector.
