Fluorinated gases are emitted globally exclusively from human-related sources, and have a large life span in the atmosphere. These gases are primarily emitted through their use as a substitute for ozone-depleting substances and industrial processes. Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) has a global warming potential that is around 22,800 times stronger than the impact of carbon dioxide (CO2) over a 100-year time horizon.
