Reducing black carbon (soot) emissions brings significant co-benefits for air quality, human health, and the climate. The main aim of the project is to develop pathways to reduce black carbon emissions in the EU and China. Innovative close collaboration between legal researchers and atmospheric scientists allows to co-produce pathways which are both feasible from a legal and policy perspective, and effective in achieving co-benefits for climate and air quality. The long-term contribution of the project is the advancement of problem-oriented, interdisciplinary research for better policy coherence and sustainable development.
