Mario Molina

Nobel Prize winner showed how CFCs could break down the Earth's protection against harmful ultraviolet radiation.

In announcing the award, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said "the three researchers have contributed to our salvation from a global environmental problem that could have catastrophic consequences." But in 1985, British researchers discovered a massive hole in the ozone layer over Antarctica. Crutzen of the Max Planck Institute in Germany. Their findings were published in the journal Nature in 1974. Sherwood Rowland of the University of California at Irvine, Molina found that CFCs in the upper atmosphere could be broken down by ultraviolet radiation, releasing chlorine atoms, which destroy ozone molecules. The consequences were dire, for without the ozone layer to help protect us from the sun, our planet wouldn't be habitable.

The Mario Molina Center, a leading research institute in Mexico, carries on his work to create a more sustainable world. He went earned a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, and an advanced degree from the University of Freiburg in Germany. On October 7, 2020, Molina died aged 77 of a heart attack in Mexico. He was one of the first to discover that chlorofluorocarbons were breaking down the ozone and causing ultraviolet radiation to reach the Earth's surface. He and his co-researchers published their findings in the Nature journal, which later won them the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1995. After completing his studies, he moved to the United States to conduct postdoctoral research at the University of California, Berkeley, and later at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

NEW DELHI: Google on Sunday celebrated the 80th birth anniversary of Dr Mario Molina, a Mexican chemist who pioneered the task of convincing governments to come together to save the planet's ozone layer, through a doodle.

The Mario Molina Center, a leading research institute in Mexico, carries on his work to create a more sustainable world. He was one of the first to discover that chlorofluorocarbons (a chemical found in air conditioners, aerosol sprays, and more) were breaking down the ozone and causing ultraviolet radiation to reach Earth's surface. After completing his studies, he moved to the United States to conduct postdoctoral research at the University of California, Berkeley, and later at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Dr Mario Molina was a visionary and Chemistry expert who played a pivotal role in detecting and working towards patching up the hole in Earth's ozone layer.

He also brought forward the damages of chlorofluorocarbons on the planet. He was also one of the first to detect the impacts of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) on Earth. Dr Molina played a pivotal role in the detection of the impact of global warming on Earth.
