London-based EIA report reveals smuggling of climate-warming HFCs into Europe from China and Turkey, undermining global pact to phase out these gases.
London-based Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) report reveals that climate-warming refrigerant gases, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), are being smuggled into Europe from China and Turkey.
Despite commitments to reduce HFC use, law enforcement agencies across the European Union struggle to keep track of illicit shipments, as smugglers resort to increasingly sophisticated tactics to evade detection.
