The basic science is very well established; it is well understood that global warming is due to greenhouse gases. What is uncertain is projections about specifics in the next few decades, by how much will the climate change. Mario J. Molina basicchangeclimate share on social
Laboratory experiments, field observations and atmospheric modeling calculations have now established that chemical reactions occurring on PSC particles play a central role in polar ozone depletion. Mario J. Molina atmosphericcalculationcentral Change image and share on social
Much remains to be learned about stratospheric chemistry - and, in more general terms, about the physics and chemistry of the global atmosphere. Mario J. Molina atmospherechemistrygeneral Change image and share on social
Climate change and ozone depletion are two global issues that are different but have many connections. In the ozone depletion case, we managed to work with decision makers effectively so that an international agreement called the Montreal Protocol was achieved that essentially solved the ozone depletion problem.

Beginning in 1986, a series of field experiments were designed to test the various hypotheses which had been put forth to explain the Antarctic ozone hole. Mario J. Molina antarcticbegindesign Change image and share on social
