Andersen, Ph.D., Director of Researchat the Institute for Governance and Sustainable Development Sponsored by Much Shelist, P.C.In 1974, M. Molina and F. Sherwood warned that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were destroying the stratospheric ozone layer that protects Earth from ultraviolet radiation that causes skin cancer andcataracts, suppresses the human immune system, and damages agricultural crops and ecosystems.The U.S. public reacted quickly to the 1974 warning with boycotts so successful that sales of CFChairspray and deodorant crashed long before the U.S. government banned these uses in 1978. In thedecade after the 1974 warning, scientists documented the buildup and long lifetime of CFCs in the atmosphere; found the chemical proof that CFCs break down in the stratosphere, catalytically depletingozone; and worked persistently to motivate the public and policy-makers to take action. In response to overwhelming scientific evidence, United Nations negotiations came to agreement on the ViennaConvention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer in 1985 and the Montreal Protocol in 1987. Today, 38 years after the ozone warning and 25 years after the signing of the Montreal Protocol, 97% of almost 100 ozone-depleting chemicals have been phased out worldwide, the stratospheric ozone layer is on its way to recovery, and a growing coalition of nations supports expanded use of the protocol to address hydrofluorocarbon greenhouse gases.This Critical Review sets the stage by describing the historic widespread use of various ozone-depleting substances (ODSs), summarizes the evolution of control measures and compliance under the Montreal Protocol and national legislation, reviews estimates of environmental effects that wereavoided by the global phase-out of ODSs, and then presents a detailed critical review of five separatemarket transformations over the last 100 years in automobile refrigeration and air conditioning technology that were driven by scientific concern for health and environment.Following the review presentation, a panel of invited experts will critique the presentation and the author’s conclusions, and will offer their views on the topic.6 http://ace2013.awma.org/Keynote Presentation43rd Annual Critical ReviewBOB LANGERTMcDonald’s Vice President, CSR & SustainabilityBob Langert leads McDonald’s global sustainability efforts, working with McDonald’s system to grow businessby making a positive difference in society.

Students areencouraged to use A&WMA membersand professional attendees on site asresources for this final bit of research.The ECi competition is open to under-graduates and graduate students incolleges and universities studying forenvironmental careers.
