Air conditioners and refrigerators pose as big a threat to "life on the planet" as the threat of terrorism, Secretary of State John Kerry said Friday.
Kerry was in Vienna negotiating a global climate deal to phase out chemicals used as refrigerants in basic household and commercial appliances such as air conditioning and refrigerators, called hydrofluorocarbons, or HFCs. The chemicals are a potent source of greenhouse gas emissions that many scientists blame for contributing to global warming.
Kerry made the remarks as part of a pep talk for negotiators working through the weekend to amend a 1987 treaty called the Montreal Protocol to deal with the chemicals.

No, they want to take away our refrigerators and air conditioners, TO SAVE THE ERF!
MADNESS! Pure irrational insanity!
Mr ketchup (who was in vietnam dontchyaknow) is an idiot, and a horrible idiot at that. He gives idiots a bad name.
Only healthcare, airconditioning, and transportation
for the very special EXEMPT like King Kerry
and his family of Iranians on Beacon Hill and on that
island off of Massachusetts where no Syrians are allowed.
JK has been sniffing glue again. Stuff destroys your brain.
Guess John F’n Kerry wants the serfs to go back to using iceboxes. Do these stupid democrats place bets to see who can spout the most insane drivel?
Stunning stupidity!
I hope Senate ratification is still the rule of law.
Oopas, forgot to say Kerry is a stupid F’n bastard!
lol.....kerry the slimy goofball.
It’s a 100 degrees in Dallas. Heat kills too. Must be racism.
Oops I see, it’s Kerry - never mind - asking for deletion.
Yeah. #### this. Win or lose in November, it’s time to dance.
He was in Vietnam? I thought he was in Cambodia. /s
This SOB is the same treasonous ass who met with the North Viets in Paris. He is pure trash.

Oh, absolutely! What are these “replacement” chemicals, anyway??? have they discovered a new periodic table of the elements, or re-written the laws of physics??? If a few million peons die of heatstroke and poisoning from rotten spoiled food, you’ll just have to get used to it! Forward comrades, into the glorious Soviet future!!! /SARCASM
There needs to be new laws against Refrigerator chemicals renting trucks.... and they should be strict background checks, should any of these chemicals try to buy an AR-15.
Well, that's not going to work, with all the global warming going around, we're already well beyond peak ice.
We cannot revert to ice boxes. That would require vast fleets of gasoline burning trucks going house to house across the nation delivering blocks of ICE.
How much energy would be required to freeze enough ice twice a week to 300 million people, let alone the (who knows how many) towering office buildings and factories.
The loonies will surely point out that ice was once delivered by HORSEdrawn wagons. Get them stud horses busy, quick.
