HFCs are powerful greenhouse gases originally developed as substitutes for ozone-depleting chemicals. A binding legal agreement exists that can cut HFCs now—the Montreal Protocol ozone treaty—and many alternatives to HFCs have already been developed and are waiting for the right regulatory incentive from the Montreal Protocol to be deployed.

Rather, coal power production and other industrial processes release sulfur dioxide—the same gas that billows from volcanoes—that later reacts with atmospheric molecules called hydroxyl radicals to produce sulfates as a byproduct. And hydroxyls drive long chains of reactions involving other common gases, including ozone.
