Celebration of World Ozone Day
The ozone layer, a fragile shield of gas, protects the Earth from the harmful portion of the rays of the sun, thus helping preserve life on the planet. The phaseout of controlled use of ozone depleting substances and the related reductions will not only help protect the ozone layer for this and future generations, but will also contribute significantly to global efforts to address climate change; furthermore, it will protect human health and ecosystems by limiting the harmful ultraviolet radiation from reaching the earth.
In continuation to the same, we celebrated World Ozone Day with our students of Prudence School, Ashok Vihar. Our children learnt the importance of the ozone blanket through extraordinary activities. The teachers shared important information and engaged them to get sensitised towards the importance of Ozone layer. Students were adorned with the badges saying 'I AM a पर्यावरण मित्र'. Parents, students and teachers pledged to conserve the Ozone layer by putting their thumb impression on the oath board. Indeed a great way of spreading awareness towards this cause.
