R-410A bromine or chlorine, R-410A (which contains only fluorine) does not contribute to ozone depletion, and is therefore becoming more widely used, as ozone-depleting refrigerants like R-22 are phased out. However, it has a high global warming potential (1700 times the effect of carbon dioxide), similar to that of R-22. Since R-410A allows for higher SEER ratings than an R-22 system, by reducing power consumption, the overall impact on global warming of R-410A systems will be substantially lower than that of R-22 systems due to reduced greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.

Global warming in Belgium compared to 1990 when 54.84 million tons equivalent was emitted. The plan for 2008-2012 includes 172 premises. In 2005, the largest emitters were (number in tons equivalent): Other large emitter are cast iron and steel producer in Charleroi and Liège. On October 22, 2009, BASF announced that they will close the plant located at Feluy at the end of 2009. That plant had a yearly allocation of 36,688 tons of equivalent. Global warming in Belgium Global warming in Belgium describes the global warming related issues in Belgium. In 1990, the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were 146.9 million tons of equivalent
