HFC-23 is a very potent greenhouse gas, with one tonne of its emissions being equivalent to the release of more than 12,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide. Now, an international team of researchers have shown, in an open-access paper published in the journal Nature Communications , that concentrations were increasing at an all-time record by 2018.
