On this day in 1987 the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was signed. This offers an opportunity around the world to focus attention and action at the global, regional and national levels on the protection of the ozone layer. The Ozone Layer serves the protective layer of naturally occurring gas, comprised of three atoms of oxygen found about 10 – 50 km above the earth’s surface that protects us from the harmful ultraviolet radiation or UV-B rays of sun.https://harishbhat.com/environment/%E0%B2%AC%E0%B3%86%E0%B2%9F%E0%B3%8D%E0%B2%9F%E0%B2%A6-%E0%B2%9C%E0%B3%80%E0%B2%B5-man-of-the-hills-a-must-watch-movie/Sun, 17 Jul 2011 14:59:00 +0000https://harishbhat.com/environment/%E0%B2%AC%E0%B3%86%E0%B2%9F%E0%B3%8D%E0%B2%9F%E0%B2%A6-%E0%B2%9C%E0%B3%80%E0%B2%B5-man-of-the-hills-a-must-watch-movie/It was during my graduation when I read the book ಬೆಟ್ಟದ ಜೀವ (Bettada Jeeva) for the first time.
