NF3 in Microchips May be the Missing Greenhouse Gas



"A chemical widely used to manufacture microchips and flat-screen monitors and televisions has 17,000 times the greenhouse effect of carbon dioxide, but remains unregulated under domestic laws or international treaties, a team of atmospheric chemists from the University of California-Irvine has warned, in a paper published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.

The chemical in question is known as nitrogen trifluoride (NF3)" - naturalnews.com
