Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

ACCORDING TO THE MONTREAL PROTOCOL, AGREED UPON IN 1987, A 50% DECREASE IN CFC EMISSIONS WILL BECOME EFFECTIVE IN 1999. OPTIMISTIC SCENARIOS DO NOT FORESEE ANY PROBLEMS FOR REFRIGERATION, SUPPOSING ALTERNATIVE, ENVIRONMENTALLY MORE ACCEPTABLE, REFRIGERANTS BECOME AVAILABLE IN A PERIOD OF 5 TO 7 YEARS FROM NOW. THE NEWEST ANALYSIS OFOZONE MEASUREMENTS, YIELDING AN UNEXPECTED SEASONAL DEPLETION EVERYWHERE, MIGHT HAVE THE CONSEQUENCE THAT ADDITIONNAL REDUCTIONS WILL BE AGREED UPON. THE REFRIGERATION INDUSTRY WILL THEN HAVE TO SEARCH MORE ACTIVELY FOR ALTERNATIVES. THEMAIN PART OF THE PAPER DEALS WITH THE IIR INITIATIVE TO INVESTIGATE THE EFFECTS OF MEASURES AND THE RESEARCH NECESSARY TO DECREASE CFC EMISSIONS.
