... Thus, the two issues are inextricably entwined and form part of the larger global change issue that recognizes that essentially all components of the earth-atmosphere-ocean-biosphere-cryosphere system interact with and affect one another, often in ways that are currently not well understood. This symposium was primarily concerned with the linkages between ozone depletion and increasing greenhouse gases and with their combined effect in causing climate change to occur on a global scale.

... Sherwood Rowland discusses the long-term outlook for stratospheric halocarbon concentrations and the associated outlook for ozone concentrations. He also presents evidence of recent stratospheric ozone depletion in the Northern Hemisphere, especially in winter.

... In summary, the Joint Symposium on Ozone Depletion, Greenhouse Gases, and Climate Change reviewed the magnitude and causes of stratospheric ozone depletion and examined the connections that exist between this problem and the impending climate warming due to increasing greenhouse gases. The presentations of these proceedings indicate that the connections are real and important and that the stratospheric ozone depletion and tropospheric greenhouse warming problems must be studied as parts of an interactive global system rather than as more or less unconnected events.
