<[link removed]> ConservAmerica: Today’s Ratification of the Kigali Amendment Has Been a Long Time Coming September 21, 2022 Washington, DC – ConservAmerica President Jeff Kupfer released the following statement today on the U.S Senate’s ratification of the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol: “The overwhelming support for today’s passage is a significant step in reducing emissions. It proves not only that bipartisan agreement is possible on environmental issues, but also that industry and environmental groups can coalesce in support of climate solutions. Environmental protection and economic growth are not mutually exclusive. The key to addressing climate change ultimately lies in policies that spur collaboration and innovation, and also support our energy and economic needs. Today’s vote has been a long time coming and we commend the Senate for its passage.” Today’s ratification of the Kigali Amendment adds the United States to a list of 137 countries that have agreed to phase down the use of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), chemicals found in air conditioning and refrigeration, and that are potent greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change.
