Direct and Indirect Impacts
Direct Impact Examples:CFC-based refrigerant leakage from HVAC stratospheric O3 depletion Construction activity erosion + sedimentation in nearby streams
Indirect Impact Examples:Selecting propane or H2O refrigerant reduces ozone depletion, but increases HVAC equipment size and therefore requires more electricity from an off site coal plant emitting additional greenhouse gases

from an off-site coal plant, emitting additional greenhouse gasesPurchase of non-FSC® wood products may promote deforestation
