The main aim of the project is to develop pathways to reduce black carbon emissions in the EU and China through integrated approaches to climate change and air pollution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Climate change and air pollution are two of the most important challenges to public health and sustainability, closely linked both in terms of emission sources and impacts. These two problems are often addressed in a fragmented, siloed manner, and there is no sufficient understanding of what explains such policy disintegration and how to develop and diffuse effective legal rules to achieve co-benefits for climate and air quality. One example is reducing emissions of short-lived climate pollutants, including black carbon, which contributes to air pollution and climate change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To develop pathways to reduce black carbon emissions, the project is organised into three work packages (WPs) \u2013 one with a socio-legal focus (WP1, \u201cLaw & Governance\u201d), drawing on policy integration and norm diffusion studies; one focused on climate modelling (WP2, \u201cScientific Modelling\u201d) and a third package to coordinate between them and synthesise findings (WP3, \u201cSynthesis & Coordination\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The long-term contribution of ClimAirPathways <\/em>is the advancement of problem-oriented, interdisciplinary research for better policy coherence and sustainable development. In doing so, the project draws on insights and expertise gained under two previous projects on short-lived climate pollutants at CCEEL, ClimaSlow<\/em><\/a> (European Research Council, 2017-2022) and Keeping the Arctic White<\/em><\/a> (Academy of Finland 2015-2018).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is funded by Research Council of Finland. The project consortium consists of UEF CCEEL and the Finnish Meteorological Institute. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
