Tradiční freony z ledniček skončily v propadlišti dějin, protože ničí ozonovou vrstvu. Jejich nástupcem se stal freon R-134a, který je sice vůči ozonové vrstvě šetrný, ale zase má poněkud skleníkovou povahu. Zajímavým řešením by se mohly stát plastické krystaly, které při stlačování absorbují značné množství tepla. Technologie ale ještě musí dozrát. http://www.osel.cz/13861-sklenikove-plyny-v-lednickach-mohou-byt-nahrazeny-plastickymi-krystaly.html
