The Montreal Protocol got to be a failure when it imposed huge costs and failed to reduce the ozone hole.
When you banned the CFCs you also forced people to replace their refrigeration equipment. This imposed a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars. The equipment that uses CFC substitutes is not as efficient, thus causing an increase in electrical power consumption. Likewise the A/C in you car uses R-134a and is 11% less efficient than R-12 machine that preceded it. Hence your MPG is lower with the R-134a machine than the R-12 machine.
The ozone hole has not decreased in size one iota. This treaty has been in place for twenty years and nothing positve has come of it.
If that ain't a failure, just what is?
