PROBLEMS OF IMPROVING INTERNATIONAL LEGAL MECHANISMS FOR PROTECTING THE OZONE LAYER IN THE CONTEXT OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Abstract

The article comprehensively analyzes the trends in the development of mechanisms for international legal protection of the ozone layer in the context of digital transformation of global environmental management. The legal nature of the Vienna Convention of 1985 and the Montreal Protocol of 1987, which form the main legal foundation for the protection of the ozone layer, the mechanisms for ensuring their implementation and the impact of the use of digital technologies in the international community on legal practice are considered in detail. The study clearly demonstrates the process of changing the traditional legal paradigm of ozone layer protection by means of digital monitoring, electronic reporting, data-based analysis and surveillance. In addition, a comparative legal analysis of the National practices of the European Union, the people's Republic of China and the Republic of Kazakhstan is carried out, and their effectiveness, innovative solutions and legal compliance with digital environmental management methods are evaluated. The results of the study make it possible to identify the main directions of coordination of digital tools with international legal institutions, as well as provide specific recommendations and practical guidelines aimed at improving the legal system for protecting the ozone layer. This study has important scientific and practical significance in terms of integrating international law and digital environmental management, as well as a significant contribution to improving climate policy.
