Does the fridge energy usage plus the terrible global warming potential of the fridge's gases outweigh the non organic version's increased chemical use?

Newer fridges don't use those gases, and unless you have a dedicated produce fridge, it was gonna be running anyways.

Would the fridge die sooner if it was used more?
