Children and Ozzy Ozone Also, as everyone with a daughter or son knows, children are important for another reason: they transmit messages and information to adults: their parents, families, and teachers. For these reasons, UNEP has emphasised children in its Global Awareness
Campaign under the Multilateral Fund and has developed a suite of
educational and public awareness products aimed at children.
