“Reducing black carbon pollution holds some potential for climate change mitigation, especially in the Arctic, but in order to take effective action, we have to know where it is coming from. —Zbigniew Klimont, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). High-latitude sources are especially important.

of Stanford University reported that reducing soot emissions from diesel engines and other sources could slow melting of sea ice in the Arctic faster and more economically than any other quick fix. Soot emissions are second only to carbon dioxide in promoting global warming, but its effects have been underestimated in previous climate models.

We are the only country in the civilised world not to have a a fuel efficiency standard (some people like to point out that Russia doesn’t have one either, but invading your neighbours is about as civilised as drinking vodka out of a sock).

Photo by Marcus Reubenstein on Unsplash Australia will introduce a bill to parliament this week containing its first-ever vehicle emissions rule, a huge step forward for the country. Australia doesn’t have its own fuel efficiency standards, making it one of only two advanced countries without such a rule, alongside Russia.

Given New Zealand’s reliance on personal light vehicles, accelerating the uptake of e-mobility is an essential part of reducing emissions from transport. We support tying our homologation standards to Europe because it has the most robust and stringent emissions standards. Principle . There are 3.5

That’s to say nothing of pollution and climate change. According to the EPA, roughly 29% of greenhouse gas emissions come from transportation, making it the single largest contributor of GHG emissions in the U.S. Cars are an even greater producer of pollutants with direct toxic effects on human health.
