F. Sherwood Rowland, UCI Bren Research Professor of chemistry and Earth system science, received the 1995 Nobel Prize in chemistry. He was honored for his discovery that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in products like aerosol sprays damage the Earth's protective ozone layer. Although initially controversial, this crucial finding ultimately led to a worldwide ban on CFCs.

Professor Rowland passed away on Saturday, March 10, 2012. This video was produced by Kerrin Piche Serna, University Communications. For more information, visit F. Sherwood Rowland's Wikipedia page or read an Al Jazeera article on ozone.

NASA analyses indicate that two key climate change indicators broke multiple records in the first half of 2016. Each of the first six months of 2016 was the warmest globally since modern temperature records began in 1880.

Furthermore, five of these months recorded the smallest Arctic sea ice extent since consistent satellite records started in 1979. NASA researchers are currently collecting additional data to better understand our changing climate.
