REEF Refrigerant Emissions Elimination Forum

🌎 Honoring Earth Day in Its Birthplace — San Francisco 🌱 Today, REEF joins billions around the world in recognizing Earth Day... First proposed in 1969 at a UNESCO conference right here in San Francisco, Earth Day began as a vision for peace, unity, and environmental stewardship. Since then, it has grown into a movement embraced by 193 countries, demonstrating the power of collective action for a more sustainable planet. At REEF, our mission to eliminate super-polluting refrigerants is one small but mighty part of this broader effort. From supermarkets to skyscrapers, reducing refrigerant emissions is a high-impact way to protect the Earth—and we’re proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with communities, businesses, and policymakers doing this work. Here’s to a future where clean air, safe climate, and environmental justice are shared by all. Let's celebrate this global holiday! 🌐 Learn more about how REEF is accelerating change: https://lnkd.in/gjmFK6W3 #EarthDay2025 #EnvironmentalProtection #SanFrancisco #Refrigerants
