In developing countries, the phase out of methyl bromide – in which UNIDO assisted 70 per cent of projects worldwide – is a perfect example. Through a number of inventive, ozone friendly methods, UNIDO not only helped developing countries to phase out the ozone depleting chemical, but actually assisted individuals, companies, and industry to improve their products, food security and economic output along the way.
