Malaysia has cut its use of ozone-destroying HCFCs by nearly 80% and plans to end all HCFC use by 2030. It phased out CFCs and halons in 2010. A reminder of the wider regional context: China finished phasing HCFCs out of its solvent industry last month. Malay Mail buff.ly/82Krs4P #ShareGoodNewsToo

🇨🇳 China has finished phasing out #ozone-depleting HCFCs from its solvent industry. It’s the last stage of a project running since 2016 that forced 53 enterprises to move to substitutes. A nationwide ban on #HCFCs in cleaning agents took effect on 1 July 2026.

China finished phasing out ozone-depleting HCFCs. Since 2021, China has cut HFC-linked emissions by 759 million tons of CO2 equivalent — equal to 13% of the US annual greenhouse gas footprint, or the same as taking 175 million cars off the road for 1 year www.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202609/15/...

This is *despite* reductions in emissions over the years, because greenhouse gases go up in the atmosphere and it takes a very long time for them to go away.
Greenhouse gases are the dominant cause of this radiative forcing increase.

None of the countries where the major corps that produced cfcs were, cared about anything until a viable replacement was on the table, and environmentalists forced the issue.
And cfcs, and hcfcs were still being produced and used for at least 2 decades after that, though in smaller amounts
