Almost 40 years on from the first reports of the Antarctic ozone hole, and 35 years since the Montreal Protocol to ban CFCs came into effect, what's going on with the ozone hole? How does it form? How do we measure it? And having solved the CFC problem, why are we still monitoring ozone so closely? Claire Concannon heads to NIWA's Atmospheric Research Station in Lauder, Central Otago, to find out.

We'd love to hear from you! Send us a text message.In this episode of "Discover Daily" by Perplexity, we begin with news that former Apple design chief Jony Ive has joined forces with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to create an innovative AI hardware device, aiming to revolutionize how we interact with technology. This collaboration, backed by substantial funding, could reshape the tech landscape and challenge current smartphone paradigms.We then turn our attention to the Antarctic ozone hole, which reached one of its largest sizes on record in 2023. Despite overall ozone layer recovery since the Montreal Protocol, recent years have seen unexpectedly large ozone holes. Scientists are investigating potential causes, including the effects of the 2022 Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcanic eruption, highlighting the complex interplay between ozone depletion, climate change, and atmospheric dynamics.Our deep dive focuses on a mysterious radio signal that traveled through space for 8 billion years before reaching Earth. This fast radio burst, known as FRB 20220610A, is one of the most distant and energetic ever detected. It offers a unique glimpse into the early universe and could help solve the puzzle of "missing matter" in the cosmos. As astronomers anticipate detecting thousands more FRBs in the coming years, these enigmatic signals may revolutionize our understanding of the universe's structure and evolution.From Perplexity's Discover Feed: https://www.perplexity.ai/page/jony-ive-s-openai-hardware-pro-r3yLECGkTKqHwjpr7oY7Twhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/south-pole-s-ozone-hole-sEdNtglfSPu6.zGxj2stswhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/8-billion-year-old-signal-rece-iAlx5udZTfO5Gdv6nqTi2QPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

In this episode, Ralph and Luc spotlight an environmental success story: the Montreal Protocol's role in healing the ozone layer. We draw comparisons to the pitfalls of the IPCC's COP process and try to derive a diplomatic blueprint for climate policy. We look into the science of how ozone and chlorine works in the stratosphere, the history of the activist scientists (Sherwood Roland and Mario Molina) who first sounded the alarm about CFC's destruction of the ozone layer, and the work of technocrats in devising their replacement. We also examine the geopolitical dynamics that were foundational to this planetary victory.

Here's Dr. Bud Natural with another nature minute - is the hole is the ozone fake?
There was a time when we listened to scientists. Believe it or not, it actually happened in the 1980s. Under Ronald Reagan. (Don't get me wrong, he's still a quasi-villain in this story.) When set against the backdrop of Cop28 being run by an oil and gas executive, that time we banned a whole bunch of products and chemicals in the 80s will make you wistful. When scientists discovered a hole in the ozone layer, the world came together to pass the Montreal Protocol and then something even more miraculous occurred: it worked. In 2017 scientists noticed that the hole had started to repair itself and was shrinking. Here's the story of how it all came together.

New satellite measurements show the ozone hole above Antarctica continues to grow - although it's happening later in spring than it used to. Otago University research says that the ban on chlorofluorocarbons - or CFCs - has been effective but something else, possibly climate change, is depleting the ozone layer. The lead researcher, doctoral candidate Hannah Kessenich, says ozone holes result in extreme UV levels over Antarctica and affect the climate throughout the Southern Hemisphere. Kessenich spoke to Corin Dann.

Flying Saucer Technology, Ozone Hole - Stan Deyo
Monitoring CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) is crucial for several reasons, mainly due to their adverse effects on the environment and climate. The reasons why CFCs should be monitored include:Ozone layer depletion: CFCs are known to break down the Earth's ozone layer by releasing chlorine atoms when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. A single chlorine atom can break down thousands of ozone molecules, causing a significant depletion of the ozone layer. This thinning of the ozone layer allows more harmful UV radiation to reach the Earth's surface, resulting in numerous negative consequences for humans, animals, and plants.Greenhouse gas emissions: CFCs are potent greenhouse gases, with global warming potentials thousands of times greater than carbon dioxide (CO2). They can trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, contributing to climate change and global warming. Monitoring CFCs can help us understand their role in the global climate system and develop strategies to reduce their emissions.Compliance with international agreements: The Montreal Protocol and its amendments have established a framework for phasing out the production and consumption of CFCs and other ozone-depleting substances. Monitoring the levels of CFCs in the atmosphere is essential to ensure compliance with these agreements and evaluate the effectiveness of the measures taken by countries to phase out these harmful substances.Detection of illegal activities: Despite the international ban on CFC production and consumption, there may still be instances of illegal production, trade, and use. Monitoring CFC levels in the atmosphere can help identify such activities and take appropriate measures to stop them.Assessing the ozone layer's recovery: Monitoring CFC concentrations in the atmosphere allows scientists to track the recovery of the ozone layer over time. As CFC levels decrease, the ozone layer is expected to recover gradually. Observing this progress helps verify the effectiveness of global efforts to protect the ozone layer and can inform future policies and actions.Guiding research and development: Monitoring CFCs can provide valuable information for researchers and industries working on developing alternative substances and technologies. Understanding the behavior and concentration of CFCs in the atmosphere can inform the development of safer alternatives that are less harmful to the environment and climate.In summary, monitoring CFCs is essential for protecting the ozone layer, mitigating climate change, ensuring compliance with international agreements, detecting illegal activities, assessing the ozone layer's recovery, and guiding research and development of alternative technologies.
It's now common knowledge that the global food supply chain has been under attack and intentionally undermined in order for the globalists to create food shortages, poverty, and civil chaos to further their agenda. The full impact of the convid manipulations and the supply chain disruptions is yet to be fully felt, so it's not too late to start adapting to the "interesting" times we'll be living in over the next few years. To help you make those adaptations (if you haven't already), I'm honoured to welcome Marjory Wildcraft to the show as both a guest and our new show sponsor. Marjory is the female leader of the Survival and Preparedness movement. In 2009 she founded The Grow Network, which is a community of people focused on modern self-sufficient living, but has been growing her own food - and helping others do the same - for 20 years now. Marjory digs into which countries and cities have been hit by food shortages already, food riots and protests, the strange weather of late, the poisoning of Ohio, Agenda 2030, crop failures, Russia's and Ukraine's role in supplying the world's food, the Hunga-Tonga-Hunga-Ha'apai volcano eruption on 15 January 2022, the ozone hole, Snap payments in America, and of course, how to adapt to our uncertain times by growing massive amounts of your own food in a very small space, even if you have no experience. She also shares other strategies and tips for making it through this decade unscathed - don't miss it. Special Guest: Marjory Wildcraft.

Or Chris's alternate title, "Ozone: A Big-ass Hole." The astounding story of how the planet came together to solve the pressing environmental issue of its time (under conservatives Reagan and Thatcher, no less!). With the dire threat of climate change looming, what can we learn from this story going forward? This episode features http://www.jamielochhead.com/#/ozonehole/ (Jamie Lochhead), the director of the PBS documentary 'The Hole: How We Saved the Planet." Plus the latest climate news of the week.
Research on recent extreme fire events shows they have a direct effect on the size of the seasonal ozone hole over Antarctica. Climate scientist Jim Haywood is concerned more frequent and extreme fires predicted by climate models could negate all the work done to reduce the ozone depleting chemical pollutants which became such a concern more than 30 years ago. We look at two very different approaches to marine conservation , and discuss how the combination of monitoring and surveillance technology and engaging with local people could help preserve many marine species . And it's festival time in Edinburgh , but we take a look at its more sinister side. How when the city became a centre for the study of anatomy it also developed a dark underbelly of serial killers and body snatchers. A new exhibition clears up some of the myths associated with this period. And the Royal Society has announced its annual medals, a variety of awards for leading scientists. This year there is a special award for Laboratory technicians, the unsung heroes of science experiments. We speak to the winner and also the BBC journalist who as a student destroyed one of his experiments.
In 1985 British scientist Jonathan Shanklin and colleagues published a study that shocked the world. The study revealed a hole in the Earth's atmosphere right over Antarctica. It had been caused over time by chemicals known as CFCs, used in things like fridges, air conditioning units and aerosol cans. These were destroying the layer of ozone in the stratosphere which protects us from most of the sun's ultraviolet radiation - without it, cases of skin cancer would soar. Less than two years after the discovery, world leaders signed an agreement called the Montreal Protocol, committing to phase out CFCs. It has been described as the most successful international treaty of all time - every UN country has signed up, and ozone is expected to return to its previous levels around the middle of the century. So what can we learn from how we tackled the ozone hole in how we address climate change? First broadcast - 29 Nov 2021 Presenters Neal Razzell and Kate Lamble are joined by: Jonathan Shanklin, Meterologist at the British Antarctic Survey, Dr Paul Newman, chief scientist for Earth Science at the Nasa Goddard Space Flight Center, Tina Birmpili, former executive secretary of the Ozone Secretariat, Dr Anita Ganesan, associate professor of Atmospheric Chemistry at the University of Bristol.

As international efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions stall, schemes to slow global warming using fantastical technologies once dismissed as a sideshow are getting serious consideration“I have seen all kinds of proposals,” said James Fleming, author of “Fixing the Sky: The Checkered History of Weather and Climate Control” and a member of the National Academy geo-engineering committee.“People are getting more and more desperate about climate change,” he said. “I think it is quite probable we will get the OK to do this.”So what are these ideas:Aerosol injection, Spraying aerosols high up into the stratosphere is currently the most talked-about form of SRM. The technique, which is known as “stratospheric aerosol injection”, could cool the planet in a similar way to a large volcanic eruption. Marine cloud brightening, In theory, this could involve using ships to spray saltwater into the clouds above the sea.Once airborne, the salt particles would act as “cloud condensation nuclei”, meaning they would facilitate the condensation of water vapour into liquid. As more water droplets are created, clouds would appear larger and brighter. Ocean mirror, A less well-known option for limiting the effects of sunlight would be to use an “ocean mirror”. In theory, this would involve using a fleet of sea vessels to churn up millions of tiny microbubbles on the ocean surface.This seafoam would reflect away sunlight, cooling the planet, explains Prof Julian Evans, an emeritus professor in materials science from University College London. Cloud thinning, Another less-explored option for reducing the effects of sunlight at the Earth's surface would be to “remove” cirrus clouds from the atmosphere.Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy clouds made of ice crystals, which form at high altitudes. The clouds reflect away some sunlight, but also absorb large amounts of long-wave radiation – meaning that, on balance, they warm the planet.Space sunshadesThe final technology discussed by scientists involves sending a giant mirror – or fleet of mirrors – into orbit in order to reflect away more sunlight from the Earth.The size of the mirror would determine how much sunlight it could reflect back towards space and, therefore, its cooling effect, says Prof Govindasamy Bala, from the Divecha Centre for Climate Change at the Indian Institute of Science.

In 1985 British scientist Jonathan Shanklin and colleagues published a study that shocked the world. The study revealed a hole in the Earth's atmosphere right over Antarctica. It had been caused over time by chemicals known as CFCs, used in things like fridges, air conditioning units and aerosol cans. These were destroying the layer of ozone in the stratosphere which protects us from most of the sun's ultraviolet radiation - without it, cases of skin cancer would soar. Less than two years after the discovery, world leaders signed an agreement called the Montreal Protocol, committing to phase out CFCs. It's been described as the most successful international treaty of all time - every UN country has signed up, and ozone is expected to return to its previous levels around the middle of the century. So what can we learn from how we tackled the ozone hole in how we address climate change? Presenters Neal Razzell and Kate Lamble are joined by: Jonathan Shanklin, Meterologist at the British Antarctic Survey Dr Paul Newman, Chief Scientist for Earth Science at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Centre Tina Birmpili, former Executive Secretary of the Ozone Secretariat Dr Anita Ganesan, Associate Professor of Atmospheric Chemistry at the University of Bristol Producer: Sophie Eastaugh Researcher: Natasha Fernandes Series producer: Alex Lewis Editor: Emma Rippon Sound engineer: Tom Brignell
Dr. Susan Solomon's research in the 1980's confirmed that the presence of chlorofluorocarbons was largely responsible for the hole in the ozone and that led consumers, chemical companies and manufacturers to a path for fixing it. For her work, Solomon was awarded the National Medal of Science, the prestigious Blue Planet Prize, shared a Nobel Peace Prize in 2007 with Al Gore and was inducted into the Women's Hall of Fame in 2009. Solomon Glacier in Antarctica was named for her. Solvable is produced by Jocelyn Frank, research by David Zha, booking by Lisa Dunn.
