The scientists are presenting their findings based on field studies conducted in Leipzig, Germany, and Toronto, Canada, at the 250 th National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society (ACS). When in the air, these compounds may combine with volatile organic compounds to produce ozone, the main component of smog.

The transport and transformation of plumes from selected European and Asian major population centers (MPCs) will now be investigated with special focus on the rate of formation of ozone and aerosols. In Asia, in particular, high temperatures, humidity, solar radiation and the frequency of storms play a major role.

Up there, 10 to 50 kilometers above the Earth’s surface, ozone molecules absorb the sun’s ultraviolet light, protecting life far below. Even less is understood about the potential risks to people and the environment—could the particles deplete the ozone layer, for example, or significantly alter the weather? about 0.6 °C.

HFO-1234yf is a non-Ozone Depleting Substance with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 4. The results from the CRP1234 programs that investigated the new refrigerant for use in mobile air conditioning systems (cars and light trucks) are available on-line. In comparison, the current refrigerant, R-134a, has a GWP of 1,430.

Current mandates and targets for liquid biofuels should be reconsidered in light of the potential adverse environmental consequences, potential displacement or competition with food crops, and difficulty of meeting these goals without large-scale land conversion. However very few studies include water use impacts. Howarth, R.W., Santoro, D.
