Inhalers - how could you help the environment ?
Some inhalers contain propellants, known as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). HFCs do not have an effect on the ozone layer. However, they are powerful greenhouse gases and can contribute to global warming. This is referred to as their carbon footprint, measured in carbon dioxide equivalents (g CO2eq). The bigger the carbon dioxide equivalent, the bigger the impact on global warming. Please be assured these gases are not harmful to you when you use your inhaler.
An information leaflet and poster are attached.
