Vietnam has made significant progress in eliminating controlled substances that threaten the ozone layer, successfully cutting carbon emissions by 220 million tonnes, after 30 years of signatory to the Vienna Convention and Montreal Protocol, according to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
Vietnam, joining hands with the international community, has made tireless efforts over the past years to protect the ozone layer, and control and eliminate ozone-depleting substances and greenhouse gases (HFCs), according to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MoNRE).
The second phase of Vietnam's HCFC Phase-out Management Project has achieved many positive results, contributing to the protection of the ozone layer and helping the country fulfil its committed goals following the Vienna Convention and the Montreal Protocol.
Vietnam will scale down production and consumption of Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) - powerful greenhouse gases which are the main drivers of climate change.
Vietnam has charted a roadmap to gradually eliminate Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) from 2024 with the goal of reducing the basic consumption of these harmful substances to the ozone layer from 2024 to 2028, according to Tang The Cuong, Director General of the Department of Climate Change under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
Hanoi (VNA) - After 25 years of implementing the Montreal Protocol roadmap on schedule, Vietnam has reduced 10 percent of consumption of substances harmful to the ozone layer, especially HCFC substanc
The Vietnamese Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment in conjunction with the United Nations Environment Programme and the World Bank (WB) organised a ceremony in Hanoi on September 16 to mark International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer.
Vietnam has actively implemented the Montreal Protocol and measures to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to preserve the ozone layer, earning international recognition, said Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environment Le Cong Thanh.
Vietnam has achieved significant results in implementing the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer and the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer.
Vietnam has significantly reduced its consumption of three ozone-depleting substances since joining the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer in January 1994.
