The Global Food Cold Chain Council (GFCCC) and UNEP OzonAction have launched the Cold Chain Database and Modelling initiative to help developing countries improve their cold chain systems. Starting in 2019, this initiative helps countries understand their current cold chain infrastructure and use of refrigerants like hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). By expanding access to energy-efficient, low-global warming potential technology, the initiative aims to reduce food waste and greenhouse gas emissions. Pilots are underway in Bahrain, Bosnia and Herzegovina, The Maldives, North Macedonia, Paraguay, and Senegal. The project supports the Sustainable Development Goals, especially those related to food security and environmental sustainability.
