Automotive air conditioning uses refrigerant to keep you cool inside your vehicle. Prior to 1994, R-12 refrigerant was used in automotive air conditioners. Once R-12 refrigerant was identified as depleting the ozone layer of the atmosphere, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) outlawed the further manufacture of R12 refrigerant, and R-134a refrigerant was introduced as a safer substitute.
