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.


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


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


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.


After the morning session, we have organized “Poster Competition” in Reading Room, First Floor,

MBA Building from 02:00 pm to 04:00 pm. Around 65 posters presented and maximum two

members of a group has presented posters on the given subject. Dr. Sunanda M. Shinde (Assistant

Professor, Liberal Arts, SGU, Kolhapur) and Mr. Sandeep B. Wategaonkar (Lecturer, Sanjay

Ghodawat Polytechnic, Atigre) were thoroughly evaluated as an external experts and helped to

reward the students for their creative efforts.

As per pre-announcement of prizes for Poster Competition, the Judges have selected three posters

out of 65 posters for prizes and in addition to these they have suggested two posters for

consolation prize. The list of selected posters is given in below table. We really appreciate Judges,

Dr. Sunanda M. Shinde and Mr. Sandeep B. Wategaonkar for their valuable time and dedication

made it possible for us to reward students for their creative efforts.

For prize distribution of the poster competition, we got eminent personality from our university,

Prof. M. T. Telsang, Dean Academics, SGU. He has taken survey of the poster competition, and

interacted with students about different kind of issues related to climate change and ozone. His


enthusiasm in promoting science among the students reflected during his visit. After that, we have

gathered for final program as per schedule that is prize distribution. All prizes were given to the

winners by hands of Prof. M. T. Telsang. For that ceremony, including Prof. M. T. Telsang, Dr. Anand
