Biden’s EPA orders slash in climate-warming chemicals used in air-conditioning and refrigeration
The new rule follows through on a law Congress passed last year. HFCs are greenhouse gases that are thousands of times more powerful than carbon dioxide. They often leak through pipes or appliances that use compressed refrigerants. Transitioning to safer alternatives is expected to generate more than $270 billion in cost savings.BIAS COVERAGE DISTRIBUTION
