The article discusses the impact of F-gases on global warming, which are more potent than CO2. The researchers analyzed the costs of reducing F-gas emissions and found that it is more cost-effective to start by reducing SF6 emissions, followed by PFCs and then HFCs. This approach can help control the increase of these harmful gases in the atmosphere.
