Quantifying contributions of chlorofluorocarbon banks to emissions and impacts on the ozone layer and climate

Following international agreements, the use of chlorofluorocarbons in production is supposed to be phased out. Here, the authors present a new estimate of these products already in use and their emissions and show that they are larger than expected and that not recovering these banks leads to a subs...
