California’s air quality programs have forced a reduction in black carbon despite a significant increase in diesel fuel consumption. The reductions occurred during a time when diesel fuel consumption increased by about a factor of five. Reducing diesel emissions can therefore lead to a reduction of both warming and cooling particles.
