Even though air quality will deteriorate further in North America and Europe, in 2050 it will be significantly better than that experienced by the global average citizen. Northern India and the Arabian Gulf region, on the other hand, will suffer a marked increase in ozone levels.

A new international study suggests that springtime ozone levels above western North America are rising mainly because of air flowing eastward from the Pacific Ocean – a trend at its largest when the air originates in Asia. This could even make it difficult for the US to meet Clean Air Act standards for ozone pollution.

Scientists say much of the black carbon in the Arctic comes from biomass and fossil fuel burning in North America and Eurasia. A continuing decline in summer sea ice, warmer temperatures, changes in vegetation, and other indicators signal polar changes that affect the rest of the globe. Black carbon is contributing to this warming.
