South Sudan ratifies Kigali Amendment

26th October 2026 | The Republic of South Sudan has become the latest country to ratify the Kigali Amendment, strengthening global efforts to phase down hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), powerful greenhouse gases commonly used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems.

By ratifying the Kigali Amendment, South Sudan commits to reducing the production and consumption of HFCs by more than 80% by 2045. The move aligns the country with a global agreement designed to curb emissions, support the transition to more climate-friendly technologies, and contribute to international efforts to limit global warming.
