In acceding to the Vienna Convention on the Protection of the Ozone Layer and the
Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, as well as its four
Amendments: London (1990), Copenhagen (1992), Montreal (1997) and Beijing (1999),
the Holy See desires to encourage the entire International Community to be resolute
in promoting authentic cooperation between politics, science and economics. Such cooperation,
as has been shown in the case of the ozone regime, can achieve important outcomes,
which make it simultaneously possible to safeguard creation, to promote integral human
development and to care for the common good, in a spirit of responsible solidarity
and with profound positive repercussions for present and future generations.
In conformity with its own nature and with the particular character of Vatican City
State, the Holy See, by means of the solemn act of accession, intends to give its
own moral support to the commitment of States to the correct and effective implementation
of the Treaties in question and to the attaining of the mentioned objectives. To this
end, it expresses the wish that by recognizing 'the signs of [an economic growth]
that has not always been able to protect the delicate balances of nature' (Homily
of Pope Benedict XVI at Loreto, 2 September 2007), all actors will intensify the aforesaid
cooperation and strengthen 'the alliance between man and the environment, which must
mirror the creative love of God, from whom we come and to whom we are bound'(Benedict
XVI, After the Angelus, 16 September 2007).

Instruments and Related Treaties" of 19 April 2000, applies to the present Amendment.
