The coalition will focus efforts on reducing black carbon, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), and methane. Fast action on pollutants such as black carbon, ground-level ozone and methane may help limit near-term global temperature rise and significantly increase the chances of keeping temperature rise below 2 °C (3.6 °F),

Results of the study suggest that soot is second only to carbon dioxide in contributing to global warming. Because of that, soot’s contribution to global warming has been ignored completely in national and international global warming policy legislation, he said. He also found that soot emissions kill more than 1.5 Dessler et al.,

In particular, the study led by Drew Shindell found that methane emissions have a larger warming impact due to those interactions than accounted for in current carbon-trading schemes or in the Kyoto Protocol. And hydroxyls drive long chains of reactions involving other common gases, including ozone. Shindell et al.

The cap is enforced by requiring each source that operates under the cap to turn in one allowance or offset credit for every metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO 2 e) that it emits. The cap-and-trade program gives sources flexibility to make the most cost-effective choices about when and how to reduce emissions.

While last year it appeared that the auto industry as a whole would shift to R-1234yf, in September 2012, Daimler said that internal testing had identified safety (flammability) issues under certain conditions, and that it would not use R-1234yf in its products. BMW and Volkswagen followed suit. transition to a new refrigerant is not easy.
