Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer: 2006 Assessment Report of the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel

The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was designed so that the phase out schedules could be revised on the basis of periodic scientific and technological assessments. Since the 2002 Assessment of the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel, a large number of technical developments have taken place. The Panel's six Technical Options Committees have each issued a 2006 Assessment Report that document these developments. The Executive Summaries of these reports form the body of the present publication.
