Report on One Day Workshop on Ozone Day
16th September, 2018
Theme: 32 Years and Healing
The Center for Space and Atmospheric Science (CSAS) under Department of Physics, School
of Science, Environment Club, SGU and ISHARE Kolhapur-Sangli Sub Chapter has organized
a One Day Workshop on Ozone Day on 16th September, 2019. We have started this activity
since the foundation of the university.
Initially, on 16th September, 2017, we have celebrated ozone day by only publishing
wallpapers on ozone related issues and organized a special talk by Dr. Dada P. Nade, Event
Coordinator, on “Ozone and its Depletion”. It was informative lecture. On this occasion we
have inaugurated the Microtop II Ozonometer by hands of Vice-Chancellor Dr. V. A.
Raikar. The Ozonometer is purchased under DST-SERB project (PI: Dr. Dada P. Nade) from
Solar Light Pvt. USA for measurement of ozone, water vapor and aerosol at village Atigre.
Last year we have organized Poster Competition on Ozone and its effect on Climate Change
for internal students of School of Science and two guest lectures by Prof. D. B. Kelkar and
Dr. Dada P. Nade. To organize that event, ISHARE Kolhapur-Sangli Sub Chapter has also
contributed in the same. By considering the huge response from student side, we have
organized this year a One Day Workshop on Ozone Day on 16th September, 2019. We called
outside (university outside) students for the Poster Competition on the following
subjects,
1. Importance of ozone day
2. Sources of ozone-depleting substances
3. Women in science for ozone protection
4. Global Warming and Climate Change
Around 130 participants have registered from various Colleges and Schools and around 50
participants from the Sanjay Ghodawat University, Kolhapur. Around 200 participants
(around 180 students and 20 Faculty) were involved in this one day workshop. A workshop
has inaugurated by Prof. C. H. Bhosale, (Department of Physics) which took place at ‘A
Block’, Third Floor, Seminar Hall, on Monday 16th September, 2019 from 11.00 am to 12.00
pm.
Coordinators Dr. Dada P. Nade Dr. Rani P. Pawar Mr. Mahaveer K
We inaugurated the workshop by planting water to tree and followed Saraswati Pujan. One
of the Event Coordinator, Dr. Rani P. Pawar, has explained why we have been organizing
such events in our university and then she mentioned about the previous workshop on
ozone and activities conducted by the Department of Physics from last three years. After
her introduction, Dr. Sarita P. Patil, HOD, Physics talked about the historic achievement of
the Montreal Protocol for the phasing out the ozone depleting substances.
"As we rightly focus our energies on tackling climate change, we must be careful not
to neglect the ozone layer and stay alert to the threat posed by the illegal use of
ozone-depleting gases." UN Secretary-General
Coordinators Dr. Dada P. Nade Dr. Rani P. Pawar Mr. Mahaveer K
We should remember that the Montreal Protocol is both an inspirational example of how
humanity is capable of cooperating to address a global challenge and a key instrument for
tackling today’s climate crisis. Under this international treaty, nations have worked for 32
years to slash the use of ozone-depleting chemicals, used largely by the cooling industry. As
a result, the ozone layer that shields us from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation is
healing. Other aspects are the heat-waves, super-storms and climate disruption tells us we
have no choice but to act now before it is too late.
The recent detection of emissions of one such gas, CFC-11, reminds us that we need
continued monitoring and reporting systems, and improved regulations and enforcement
said by Dr. B. M. Hirdekar, Registrar, SGU, Kolhapur as a keynote speaker. He also pointed
out about our responsibilities regarding the Nature. He also said that we should care our
environment otherwise nature will reply us in the form of Flood, Earthquake and so on.
Dr. Anand D. Sawant focused on production of CFC and current status of cooling industries.
He pointed this issue after the introduction of the Indian Society of Heating, Refrigerating
and Air Conditioning Engineers (ISHRAE), Kolhapur- Sangli Sub-Chapter given by Mr.
Nilesh Desai, Student Chair of ISHRAE. Mr. Desai has explained working style of ISHRAE
and their contribution to society through various activities.
In the presidential address Prof. C. H. Bhosale focused on natural source of energy that is
the Sun. He pointed out, every day the Sun emitting tremendous amount of energy, and the
energy emitted by the sun in one hour is equivalent to the requirement of one year energy
Coordinators Dr. Dada P. Nade Dr. Rani P. Pawar Mr. Mahaveer K
for the whole world. He appreciates all the participants and organizers for such a
wonderful societal event.
For inaugural ceremony, Prof. C. H. Bhosale (President of inaugural ceremony), Prof. B. M.
Hirdekar (Keynote Address), Dr. Anand D. Sawant (Dean, School of Science), Dr. Sarita P.
Patil (HOD, Physics), Mr. Nilesh Desai (Student Chai of ISHRAE), Dr. Rani P. Pawar (Event
Coordinator), Mr. Mahaveer Kanchgouda (Event Coordinator) and Dr. Dada P. Nade (Event
Coordinator) were present on the dais. The vote of thanks has given by Mr. Mahaveer
Kanchgouda on behalf of an organization, SGU and the organizing committee.
After the inaugural ceremony immediately we have started the Special talk on “Global
Warming: Role of Ozone” by Dr. Dada P. Nade. He addressed to the students about
awareness of stratospheric ozone and tropospheric ozone as well. The stratospheric ozone
is in recovering stage while the surface ozone going to increase rapidly and this is very
dangerous for us. Due to this ozone, the concentration of oxygen became decreasing and
hence we will face with birthing problem. He also explained the role of ozone in the Global
Warming. In session of question-answering, he said that it is our moral responsibility to
create awareness about climate change and environmental issues among the society.
Coordinators Dr. Dada P. Nade Dr. Rani P. Pawar Mr. Mahaveer K
