SUMMARY:Refrigerant Emissions\, Climate Impact\, and the Role of Voluntary Carbon Markets
DESCRIPTION:Objectives\nTogether with an expert from Recoolit\, this workshop aims to foster a deeper understanding of refrigerant emissions as a climate issue. It will spotlight emerging solutions powered by voluntary climate finance\, and catalyze greater innovation and collaboration across sectors committed to tackling short-lived but powerful threats to the climate. \nBackground\nRefrigerants are used in a wide variety of everyday applications\, primarily for cooling and temperature control which has become a necessity in daily life across the world. They release gases such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)\, hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs)\, and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) with high global warming potentials (GWPs) that far exceed that of carbon dioxide. These gases often leak into the atmosphere during their lifespan or disposal. Once emitted\, they contribute significantly to climate change\, particularly as short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) that exert intense warming over a relatively short timeframe. Despite this\, refrigerant emissions have remained one of the least addressed environmental challenges due to their diffuse nature\, low visibility\, and complex handling requirements. \nThis workshop aims to introduce the problem of refrigerant emissions\, exploring their sources\, global climate implications\, and the structural difficulties that make mitigation so challenging. While the world has taken steps through international agreements such as the Montreal Protocol and its Kigali Amendment\, real-world enforcement and infrastructure—particularly in countries like Indonesia—lag far behind. The informal nature of refrigerant recovery\, lack of standardized protocols\, and limited financial incentives create a gap between ambition and action. \nRecoolit carbon project\nThe workshop will present Recoolit’s work in building a carbon project that collects and destroys refrigerants\, thereby avoiding emissions that would otherwise occur. By placing value on avoided emissions through verified carbon credits\, Recoolit not only mobilizes private capital but also creates a scalable solution for a historically under-addressed issue. \nAn important element of this workshop is highlighting the relevance of SLCPs in the broader climate discussion. As the VCM becomes increasingly focused on carbon removal—often perceived as the most direct and measurable form of climate action—this workshop argues that avoidance projects\, particularly those targeting SLCPs like HFCs\, remain essential. Because these gases cannot be effectively captured once released into the atmosphere\, preventing their emissions in the first place is the only viable mitigation strategy. \nSpeakers\nAlvianni Nur Mahmudah\, Consultant\, Neyen \nGuest speaker: Yosaka E.
