Résumé

I welcome the opportunity to speak about a subject of great importance to our industry. The biennial conferences at Purdue have acquired a justified reputation for substance and excellence, and I'm glad to see the large attendance. Given the recent significant developments pointing toward possible further CFC restrictions and the continuing need for high efficiency compressors, the conferences take on a greater significance than ever. Everyone in our industry, and indeed all people in the world who depend upon the products we provide, face some difficult choices and possibly some disruptions during the next decade or two as we shift away from refrigerants that have been used for more than 50 years. With modern technology, and with ingenuity and determination, we should be able to find alternative ways of refrigerating. But it will take time. It will not be easy. We have an enormous investment in current technology and a vast worldwide inventory of equipment which will continue to need service for years. Will we be given the time needed to accomplish the transition? How do we do it? How long will it take? What are the implications if our governments, responding to public concerns, insist on rapidly terminating production of CFC refrigerants? I don't anticipate that I can answer those questions completely in this presentation, but I will attempt to identify the main concerns as I see them and suggest some actions which we should all be considering in responding to this developing issue.
