[World Meteorological Organization: Global Ozone Layer Recovery Continues to Show Results] September 16th is the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) released its Ozone Bulletin that day, stating that the Antarctic ozone hole in 2025 will be one of the smallest in decades, demonstrating the continued effectiveness of international efforts to protect the Earth's ozone layer. The bulletin said that the Antarctic ozone hole in 2025 will rank as the fourth or fifth smallest since the severe depletion pattern was observed in 1992. This marks the second consecutive year that the depth and extent of the Antarctic ozone hole have been significantly lower than the average level from 1990 to 2010. (Xinhua)
