CARB also adopted a new plan to curb destructive “super pollutants” including black carbon, fluorinated gases and methane. Approximately 70% of the reductions needed to meet the ozone standard in the South Coast in 2031 would come from existing or proposed regulatory actions. emissions by more than 20%. emissions by more than 20%.

Results of the study suggest that soot is second only to carbon dioxide in contributing to global warming. Jacobson found that the combination of the two types of soot is the second-leading cause of global warming after carbon dioxide. Black carbon converts sunlight to heat and radiates it back to the air around it.

Scientists from the US, Norway, Russia, Germany, Italy and China are participating in a study examining the potential role of black carbon, or soot, on the rapidly changing Arctic climate. Black carbon is contributing to this warming. Carbon is dark in color and absorbs solar radiation, much like wearing a black shirt on a sunny day.
