Delegated from eleven countries gathered in Mongolia Thursday to review enforcement of the Montreal Protocol, which calls for combating the use of Ozone Depleting Substances, called ODS. 

The conference was mainly attended by Asian-Pacific nations, as well as a few European countries. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Montreal Protocol. 

The Ulaanbaatur conference focused on working to halt the illegal use and trade of ODS and seeking environmentally friendly alternatives for governments to promote. 

Since the Montreal Protocol was created, 150 countries have signed the treaty, including China.
