Alliance for Responsible Atmospheric Policy
Activities Adapting to growing global concerns regardAdapting to growing global concerns regarding the climate change impact of HFCs, the Alliance became involved in early negotiations that led to the establishment of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Kyoto Protocol. The continuous engagement in Montreal Protocol and UNFCCC-related negotiations and policymaking related to HFCs has been important because HFCs are connected to both the transition away from ozone-depleting substances and the contribution to climate change. The alliance is also involved in the development of industry-led initiatives launched in 2014 to address the climate impact of equipment in the food cold chain as well as emissions from equipment servicing and end-of-life disposal. At today’s event, the Alliance announced a new Memorandum of Understanding with industry partners to develop and implement the first ever Reclaimed HFC Credit Bank. This program seeks to create a market mechanism to increase the use of reclaimed HFCs and is supportive of the Alliance’s 2014 petition for EPA to extend Section 608 of the Clean Air Act to HFCs. Alliance member companies pledged to commit billions of dollars in research and development and commercialization of new technologies, while also continuing to improve energy efficiency performance. to improve energy efficiency performance.  +

Description The Alliance is a leading industry voice tThe Alliance is a leading industry voice that coordinates industry participation in the development of International and U.S. government policies regarding ozone protection and climate change. The Alliance is now primarily concerned with developing an orderly transition away from the use of HCFCs and HFCs in a managed process which allows its members to move towards alternative substances while continuing to meet the public’s increasing demand for safe, efficient products such as refrigeration, heat pumps, fire safety systems and medical devices as living standards and societal needs increase across the world. societal needs increase across the world.  +

Goals Its overarching goal has been to encourageIts overarching goal has been to encourage responsible, reasonable, and cost-effective ozone protection and climate change policies to be determined at the international level and to oppose the development of a patchwork of different policies at the lower levels of government. In 2014, the Aliance made its pledge to support policies and actions with a goal to reduce global hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) emissions by 80 percent by 2050.bon (HFC) emissions by 80 percent by 2050.  +

It is presently composed of about 100 manufacturers and businesses which rely on HCFCs, and HFCs. The Alliance represent more than 95 percent of US HFC production and a significant majority of the manufacturing and other user industries.
