While there have been reports of attempts by individuals to circumvent the ban, e.g. by smuggling CFCs from undeveloped to developed nations, the overall level of compliance has been high. Statistical analysis from 2010 show a clear positive signal from the Montreal Protocol to the stratospheric ozone. [ 50 ]

On 2 March 1989, 12 European Community nations agreed to ban the production of all CFCs by the end of the century. In 1990, diplomats met in London and voted to significantly strengthen the Montreal Protocol by calling for a complete elimination of CFCs by 2000.

2024年11月18日 · Learn about EPA's efforts to address ozone layer depletion by banning the sale and introduction into interstate commerce of certain non-essential products manufactured with or containing ozone-depleting substances.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Environmental Protection Agency, and Food and Drug Administration banned chlorofluorocarbons in aerosol sprays because these chemicals are harmful to Earth’s protective ozone layer. This step increased the willingness of other nations to discuss the ozone problem productively and on a continuing basis.

2023年4月3日 · The production of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that would ultimately be released to the atmosphere was banned globally in 2010 under the Montreal Protocol.

2023年4月3日 · The concentrations of some ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the atmosphere are increasing rapidly, scientists warn, despite the production of these chemicals having been banned ...

If emissions of these five CFCs continue to rise, their impact may negate some of the ozone recovery benefits gained under the Montreal Protocol, researchers said. The study noted properly destroying any co-produced CFCs would eliminate both any future impact to the ozone layer and a source of heat-trapping greenhouse gases.
