A member asked:

Does living near super market affect health due to its industrial refrigeration used and gases released?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

refrigeration: I am unaware of evidence to suggest any environmental contamination from refrigeration as you suggest. The coolants are generally not released in the environment and i've not seen reports of problems in workers in these environments.
