Refrigerants, Naturally! is a not-profit organisation promoting the uptake of zero-carbon cooling with natural refrigerants.

[IPCC @IPCC_CH]

Heatwaves in #Europe will become more frequent, more intense & will last longer.

By 2050, about half of the European population may be exposed to high or very high risk of heat stress during summer.

[4C Climate Carbon H2020 @4C_H2020]

The drop in emissions in 2020 (-6.3% vs 2019) is similar to the annual reduction needed to limit global warming at 1.5 °C, highlights a 4C-funded paper published yesterday, pointing to the urgent need for action and energy transition.

Da klimafreundliche Kühlung großes Potenzial für Umwelt- und Klimaschutz hat, unterstützen wir Unternehmen beim Umstieg auf natürliche Kältemittel.

[Yale Environment 360 @YaleE360]

A study in northern Sweden found that melting permafrost released one tenth as much methane as expected.

The findings suggest that emissions from thawing Arctic tundra could be much less than previously feared.

Atmospheric CO₂ peaks in May each year, "just before plants in the northern hemisphere start to remove large amounts of CO₂ from the atmosphere during the growing season."

ECHA's Risk Management Director Peter van der Zandt will be speaking at European Parliament’s ENVI Committee today 16.05 about #foreverchemicals #PFASs and how our work supports the #ChemicalsStrategy.

Im Gegensatz zur Darstellung in diesem Interview erreicht die #Wärmepumpe spielend einen erneuerbaren Anteil > 70% (70 - 80% Umweltwärme und 20- 30% Strom, der zu 40% erneuerbar ist). @BWPev @shkbw https://t.co/dQPldBeMO6

[BWP @BWPev]

"Wo jetzt noch Gaswandgeräte gefertigt werden, sollen durch eine modulare Bauweise auch Wärmepumpen gebaut werden." Wir freuen uns, dass die @BWPev-Mitglieder wie @Viessmann dem Umstieg auf Wärmepumpen jetzt entschlossen vorantreiben! @MaxViessmann

New Report Links PFAS Exposure to Liver Damage. Most #HFO and #HFC produce #TFA wich belongs to #PFAS. PFAS can be avoided through the transition to natural refrigerants #RefNat #NatRef

[European Environmental Bureau @Green_Europe]

We call on adequate training plans for installers of the booming Heat Pump market!

Member states lack formal training for natural refrigerants and the @EU_Commission is not addressing this swiftly enough

Heat pump professionals trained in all refrigerants are needed now🌿

[European Environmental Bureau @Green_Europe]

☢️Forever chemicals alert!

We call on the @EUparliament and the @EUCouncil to introduce a ban on the use of refrigerants that can degrade in PFAS (chemicals that stay forever in humans and nature) where alternatives exist

Every day should be #EarthDay 🌍as there is no planet B.

Together with the Commission and EU countries, ECHA works to identify and control harmful #chemicals to protect the environment.

We need a a fossil gas phase down, a F-gas phase down and the transition to natural refrigerants. This is for the benefit for the climate, the environment and Europe @EUclimate @TimmermansEU @Energy4Europe @ThomasNowakEU @RefNatClimate

[Thomas Nowak ☮️ 🇺🇦 @ThomasNowakEU]

We are having an intensive discussion on the recently published proposal for a new F-gas regulation, I really ask myself, why does @EUClimateAction regulates the F-gas phase down, but not a fossil gas phase down? @Energy4Europe @TimmermansEU

Effizient, klimafreundlich, einfach sinnvoll 👍: Wärmepumpen mit natürlichen Kältemitteln. Danke für diesen Beitrag @rahmstorf @Umwelthilfe
Heat pumps with natural refrigerants - the way to go 👏 @HEAT_GmbH Thank you for sharing your experiences. #wärmepumpe
