It’s a climate solution because using your A/C less uses less energy
Actually using your AC is one thing, incorrectly disposing of it and the gases therein is another thing all together. A ton of the refrigerating gasses in an AC (or your fridge or freezer) is equivalent of up to 22,800 tons of CO2.

Interesting! I’ve never thrown one away and always sold it to the next person so I never looked into this
It applies to fridges and freezers too. As long as the gasses are disposed of properly it's fine though.
