Donation FAQs

1. Is the North American Sustainable Refrigeration Council (NASRC) a nonprofit?
   Yes, NASRC is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Information about our nonprofit status is available here. Your contribution will expand our capacity and accelerate our progress towards eliminating hurdles preventing the widespread adoption of natural refrigerants.
   
   

2. Why support NASRC?
   Your gift will contribute to the leading climate solution identified in Project Drawdown. Traditional refrigerants have been named the fastest-growing source of greenhouse gas emissions globally, trapping thousands of times more heat than carbon dioxide.
   
   Natural refrigerants have zero or near-zero Global Warming Potential (GWP), and accelerating their adoption will result in permanent and meaningful emissions reductions. NASRC is driving this progress together with the industry.
