And yet, most modern AC units utilize a blend of hydrocarbons as their refrigerants. I walk past a person who has deposited an old chest freezer in my back alley and right on the side they have to note the refrigerants, and there is Pentane. Pentane is flammable (comprised a majority of the volatility in gasoline) but they blend it to make it not flash. This all came about as a result of CFCs damaging the ozone layer, and a friend of mine use to work in the process to make refrigerants.

So ban fossil fuels and also ban refrigerants.
