One of the most important actions to be taken seems to be limiting global warming to 1,5\u00b0C (instead of 2\u00b0C).<\/p>\n<p>Among the various sectors contributing to the problem, unfortunately, there is also the one of HVAC\/R. As Errecom has repeatedly emphasised in its press releases, masterclasses or webinars for technicians, and conferences in which R&amp;D experts have taken part as speakers, the maintenance of air conditioning and refrigeration systems can no longer be considered an optional action for environmental purposes. The presence of micro-leaks in a refrigeration or air conditioning system, not only reduces its performance, causing waste of energy but also leads the refrigerant gas to get in contact with the atmosphere. Unless we are talking about the latest low-GWP refrigerants, the consequences are devastating for the greenhouse effect (if the system contains chlorofluorocarbons) and for global warming (in the case of hydrofluorocarbons).<\/p>\n<p>From COP26 then, we expect strict measures, motivation to change and, above all, the establishment of a climate of international cooperation from which companies and citizens can also draw inspiration. But now, let\u2019s leave it to the experts and see if our expectations meet reality.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COP26: our hope for the Earth\u2019s future COP26 begins today: the 2021 Conference of the Parties, whose Presidency will be assumed by the UK for the first time this year.
