Similar shit we've seen before and since.
Some may not be old enough to have lived this version.
Once they extracted maximum coin from this farce I haven't heard shit about it until today.

That was right around the time when the DuPont patent on R12 ran out and they had to find a replacement. Miraculously they found R134 just in the nick of time before R12 wiped out all life on earth because it was causing the hole in the ozone.

R12/R502/R22 were and still are the best refrigerants. But the patents ran out and Dupont just could not make the big bucks anymore. JMHO
If you pay me a bunch of money to do a study to prove what you want to prove. Do you think I might have a tendency to give you the results you were expecting?
The theory went something like this. The chlorine in these CFC's are killing the ozone. When you ask "why then are all the swimming pools venting chlorine not a problem". Answer: because the chlorine is heavier than air and can't get into the atmosphere and it is destroyed buy the sun at ground level. But refrigerants are lighter than air and float up and destroy. Seems logical huh? Shit all those other chems must be real light to lift that chlorine.
You now must recover refrigerant and not vent it. But a system that has more than 500 pounds of refrigerant is allowed to leak 30% per year. Less than 500 pounds 20 percent per year ok. Comfort cooling 10%. If it leaks more than that you must fix the leak. If it less than that it's ok to let it leak. Go figure.
PS I am sure they will say that hole closed up because you must recover refrigerant now. and CFC's are banned. You can still buy R12 you just can make it anymore.
