Circular economy and the Montreal Protocol Division
2019 | Author(s): UNIDO
#Montreal Protocol
The aim of this publication is to introduce the work of UNIDO’s Montreal Protocol Division (MPD) and its support for the circular economy. It illustrates how the Division integrates circular economy practices into its services, which include the conversion of production facilities, product design, capacity building, new business models and policy advice. It presents selected MPD case studies that highlight a key aspect of the circular economy, one which epitomizes its very essence – the value of products, materials and components is retained by slowing their flows and enabling their reuse. This is exemplified in three interlinked areas of MPD’s work – increasing the recovery, recycling and regeneration of refrigerants, materials and components; designing out harmful substances through greening product design; and increasing the lifetime of refrigeration and air conditioning appliances. It highlights how, in all aspects of MPD’s work, effort is made to ensure that product lifetime is extended, resources are optimized, waste is minimized and value is retained.

#Montreal Protocol
Over the last 30 years, we have worked to phase-out ozone depleting substances(ODS) under the Montreal Protocol, contributing to ozone layer protection and climate change mitigation. The Kigali Amendment (KA) adds hydrofluorocarbons(HFCs) to the list of substances which are to be phased-down. Its ratification, implementation, and enforcement pose challenges but also great opportunities.

An important amendment to the Montreal Protocol was agreed on October 15, 2016 in Kigali, Rwanda. During the 28th Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol, more than 170 countries agreed to amend the Protocol to include hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) among controlled substances.

#Montreal Protocol
UNIDO has continually sought new, elegant solutions to the challenge of phasing out ozone depleting substances. In developing countries, the phase out of methyl bromide – in which UNIDO assisted 70 per cent of projects worldwide – is a perfect example. Through a number of inventive, ozone friendly methods, UNIDO not only helped developing countries to phase out the ozone depleting chemical, but actually assisted individuals, companies, and industry to improve their products, food security and economic output along the way.
50 years UNIDO Department of Environment

#Montreal Protocol
The Department of Environment of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) promotes the inclusive and sustainable development of global industry. It does so by providing assistance for the improvement of the environmental performance of existing industry and fostering new industries delivering environmental goods and services. This helps countries achieve sustained economic growth and human development.
Fixing Fridges Helps Save The Planet
2016 | Author(s): UNIDO
#Montreal Protocol
Fluids in refrigeration equipment – in fridges, freezers, cold storage, and air conditioners – often contain chemicals that damage the ozone layer and contribute to climate change. This decoupling is an integral part of inclusive and sustainable industrial development (ISID) processes.
Making It Green - Department of environment

#Montreal Protocol
It is all about greening lives: As you’ll see, we partner with businesses and community leaders to make sure that industries provide services and make products that don’t put workers, local communities or consumers at risk for exposure to toxic chemicals, as well as to generate new green jobs that help young people and women enter the workforce.
