Intro to Climate Science
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are man-made compounds that contain chlorine, fluorine, and carbon. They were widely used in refrigeration, air conditioning, and aerosol propellants due to their stability and non-flammability. However, CFCs are significant greenhouse gases that contribute to ozone layer depletion, highlighting their dual role in environmental issues.
