There are six classes of fires to define the type of fire, and most importantly, the type of fire extinguisher to use to put out the fire. Here are the fire classes and the types of extinguishers you should use: Class A - Solids (wood, paper, plastic) require water, foam, dry powder, and wet chemical extinguishers. Class B - Flammable liquids (fuel, oil, paraffin) require foam, dry powder, and CO2 gas extinguishers. Class C - Flammable gasses (propane, methane, butane) require dry powder extinguishers. Class D - Burning metals (aluminum, magnesium, titanium) require dry powder (M28/L2) extinguishers. Class E - Electrical items require dry powder or CO2 gas extinguishers. Class F - Cooking oils and fats require wet chemical extinguishers.
The white stuff in fire extinguishers is typically a chemical called dry chemical powder or monoammonium phosphate. This powder is a fire suppression agent that is effective for extinguishing different types of fires, such as those involving flammable liquids, gases, and electrical equipment. When released, the powder smothers the fire and helps to cool the fuel, preventing it from reigniting.

There really aren't impacts on the environment, unless you were to spray the Dry powder outdoors for no reason.
