SEMINAR – July 19th, 2019

From Local to Regional Scale: the short-lived climate pollutants and Green-House Gases

Venue: Atmospheric Sciences Department, Auditório Prof. Paulo Benevides Soares
Rua do Matão 1226, Cidade Universitária

Background:

Millions of people die every year as well as many air pollutants cause global warming. Short-lived climate pollutants, such as black carbon and ozone, are major contributors to climate change and air pollution. There are synergies between air pollution control and climate change mitigation as they share common sources and, to a large extent, solutions, while the majority of air pollutants also impact the climate.

Scope:

In Sao Paulo, different projects are being conducted with the objective of understanding the formation and emission of air pollutants and greenhouse gases.
In this workshop we will discuss the results, the challenges and how to engage more students and scholars to participate in the projects under development.
