Talk:Fluoroform

should its potent greenhouse gas properties and key role in Kyoto-organized Clean Development Mechanism be mentioned? see http://www.worldwatch.org/node/4634 148.85.196.144 01:07, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

NY Times, Dec 21, 2006 issue has this: The secretariat of the Clean Development Mechanism estimates that a ton of HFC-23 in the atmosphere has the same effect as 11,700 tons of carbon dioxide.

So I'm thinking HFC-23's potent greenhouse gas properties - "carbon dioxide equivalence" would be good to include on the page, but I'm not really qualified to give an accurate estimate.

Carbon dioxide equivalence is now included-- that's what the 100-yr Global Warming Potential indicates.Skamon (talk) 04:13, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Isn't this stuff highly reactive? That is, when released into the environment is does not last long enough to cause much greenhouse effect?

The atmospheric lifetime is 260 years, the ODP is 0.0 and the GWP is 12000. ("Refrigerant Data Summary" Engineered Systems, 18(11):74-88, November 2001) [USER: I] 19:40, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

fyi: different GWP's are sometimes quoted for HFC-23 because our understanding of this quantity has changed over time. A 100-yr GWP of 11700 is from the 2001 IPCC Report (Climate Change 2001: The Scientific Basis). The HFC-23 GWP was updated in the 2007 report to 14800. The UNFCCC still uses 11700, so that is why this number is often seen in literature today despite the science update. Skamon (talk) 04:13, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

Banning HFC-23 recommendation resource

"HFC-23 (hydrofluorocarbon-23) and NO2 (nitrous oxide) are so damaging to the environment that they should be banned outright and not entitled to get emission credits, the EU and other governments have said. "
