Phasing down HFCs under Montreal Protocol can cut climate pollution twice over [1]

A global phase-down of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) under the Montreal Protocol will drive the development of super-efficient air conditioning and refrigeration that in turn reduces energy use and carbon dioxide pollution, according to representatives from the global air conditioning and refrigeration industry, meeting 30-31 June in Bangkok to showcase progress in developing high-efficiency, climate-friendly alternatives to HFC refrigerants.
