For September 16, 2007. Twenty years ago today, the Montreal Protocol was opened for signature. This is the treaty that banned CFCs, the gases that damage the ozone layer. I explain the treaty, in brief, and compare the success of this treaty with the challenges of another, even more far reaching, environmental problem that we face today. Today's episode music is 'Overpopulation,' by <a href="http://www.flopsy.com/Flopsy/Home.html">Flopsy Music</a>.  Our theme music is composed and performed by <a href="http://www.drysmoke.com">Marc Rose</a>.

Episode #90 -- Montreal Protocol

A look at the events and culture of the (relatively) recent past -- twenty, or sometimes thirty, years ago from the day of posting.  The 1980s. The 1990s.  People.  Society.  Books, movies, television and video games.  Crime and justice.  War and disasters.  It's all here, seen through the lens of my own memory.  Learn or remember about days not so long gone, and see how what happened then affects us today -- all in less than ten minutes per episode.
