This year's equivalent CO₂ emissions
(and counting):

Rapid Recovery would like to thank all of the companies who utilize our services. By allowing us to recover your used refrigerant, your responsible actions help to reduce carbon dioxide equivalent emissions. In 2008 alone, we reduced CO₂ emissions by over 1.1 billion pounds.

To make 1.1 billion more comprehensible, think of it this way: The average American household has a carbon footprint of 41,900 pounds per year. In 2008, with your help, we kept the carbon footprint equivalent of more than 26,253 households from reaching the atmosphere. Or, maybe you prefer automobile analogies. The staggering 1.1 billion pounds of CO₂ is the equivalent of more than 105,500 cars driving for a year.

The enormity of our combined impact is a testament to your continued dedication to the proper recovery of refrigerants. We appreciate your business and your partnership with us to reduce the world's carbon emissions.

We look forward to meeting all of your refrigerant abatement needs in the future.
