has been slow. Most alternatives to the super pollutant HFCs are invented and produced by American companies and many American companies that previously used super pollutants are introducing alternatives in domestic and export markets. The appliances that use alternatives to HFCs and enhance energy efficiency are also designed in the United States. United States leadership and innovation in development of new technologies to replace super pollutants is expected to result in job growth and benefits for the United States economy. (5) The Federal Government has a number of programs and initiatives that aim to, or the outcomes of which, reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants, but these programs are scattered across multiple agencies and there is insufficient coordination to maximize reductions of these pollutants. In February 2012, the Government Accountability Office published an annual report, Opportunities to Reduce Duplication, Overlap and Fragmentation, Achieve Savings, and Enhance Revenue , which examined the efficiency and efficacy of Government programs, including those that address diesel emissions that contain black carbon, a short-lived climate pollutant. (6) Executive Order 13514 requires Federal agencies to develop plans for reducing hy­dro­fluo­ro­car­bons and methane, but few agencies have focused on these compounds in their annual Strategic Sustainability Performance Plans. Executive Order 13693 directs Federal agencies to take into account environmental and sustainability factors in Federal acquisition processes, including in the purchase of products using high-global warming potential hy­dro­fluo­ro­car­bons. In May 2016, the Department of Defense, General Services Administration, and National Aeronautics and Space Administration finalized and published a rule to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Rule 81 FR 30429, directing Federal agencies to procure, when feasible, alternatives to high-global warming potential hy­dro­fluo­ro­car­bons. The rule also encourages improved
