Congratulations to the United Arab Emirates 🎉The UAE becomes the 159th country to ratify the #KigaliAmendment and commit to phasing down climate warming HFCs used in cooling equipment. Another win for #ClimateAction
#MontrealProtocol
Another month, another terrible global heat record. The need to reduce GHG emissions fast is irrefutable. Universal ratification & full implementation of the #KigaliAmendment could reduce warming by as much as 1°C by 2100 #MontrealProtocol

A Tale of Two Ozones: One gas with two very different impacts. Stratospheric ozone is Earth's natural sunscreen and vital for all life to remain healthy. Tropospheric, or surface ozone, is the opposite. Confusing? Here's more: bit.ly/3DpCqEI
