Air pollution and climate change
interaction
Some traditional air pollutants (tropospheric ozone
and particles) are short-lived forcers important
role in climate system
Common sources: main air pollutants and CO2 are
emitted from the same sources (combustion) air
pollution abatement affects climate change
Atmopsheric chemistry: some air pollutants affect
the lifetimes of GHGs
