Reduction of non-CO₂ gases

Mitigation strategies for black carbon air pollution

Black carbon mitigation strategies target soot emissions from diesel engines, residential cooking/heating, open burning, and industry through cleaner fuels, advanced cookstoves, particulate filters, waste reduction, and strict emission standards.

How this solutions relates to the action agenda

Axis: Unleashing Enablers and Accelerators including on Financing, Technology and Capacity-Building

Key Objective: Reduction of non-CO₂ gases

Why it matters

Black carbon is a short-lived climate pollutant (SLCP) that accelerates warming and harms health. Cutting emissions delivers benefits such as reduced warming, improved air quality, fewer premature deaths, and stronger climate resilience.
