Environmental pollution is not a new phenomenon, but it is still the world's most serious problem, as well as
one of the primary causes of disease and mortality. Urbanization, industrialization, mining, etc. are all
examples of human activities that contribute to global environmental degradation. Both developed and
developing countries share this responsibility, despite the fact that environmental pollution has received
worldwide attention, the impact is still felt owing to its severe long-term implications.
The progressive weakening of the Earth's ozone layer in the upper atmosphere caused by the discharge of
chemical compounds containing gaseous chlorine or bromine from industry and other human activities is
known as ozone depletion. In the polar areas, notably over Antarctica, the thinning is most noticeable.
Ozone depletion is a serious environmental issue because it increases the amount of ultraviolet (UV)
radiation reaching the Earth's surface, which causes skin cancer, cataracts, and genetic and immune system
damage. The Montreal Protocol, which was ratied in 1987, was the rst of numerous comprehensive
international agreements to end the manufacturing and use of ozone depleting chemicals. The ozone layer
is projected to recover over time as a consequence of ongoing worldwide collaboration on this subject. It is
apparent that the depletion of ozone layer is causing considerable damage to the environment all around the
world. We do, however, believe that science, engineering and technology can help to mitigate the
detrimental effects of the depletion of ozone layer of the earth.
National Conference on OZONE LAYER, ITS DEPLETION AND IMPACT ON LIVING BEINGS
(ODIL-2024) aims to bring together leading academicians, scientists, researchers and research scholars to
exchange and share their experiences and on all aspects of environment pollution and Ozone depletion. It
also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present
and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered
and solutions adopted in the elds of environment pollution.
