Those refrigerants were banned because they attacked the ozone layer, not because they had anything to do with global warming.

Actually CFCs, chlorofluorocarbons are a different generation refrigerants that were banned to keep the “hole” in the ozone layer from increasing. They were replaced by HFCs, hydrofluorocarbons which the enviro-wackos are now claiming are “potent” greenhouse gasses. The “science” supporting their claims in both cases is dubious at best. It is now thought the “hole” in the ozone layer over the Antarctic is a phenomena that has occurred in the past and will continue to fluctuate in size in the future with or without chlorofluorocarbons. It is also a phenomena that is now thought to have little if any effect on people, animals, and plant life.

Of course your are correct, but none of that matters to the left. Facts just get in the way of the results they want. We will get tons more of this if Hillary is elected.

Just a few years ago, Obama was paying people to switch to R410a. Now, they want to ban it. SMH.
