Comment:
I know that black carbon is being made in sufficient quantities to darken polar and mountain ice. Natural gas is mostly methane, and apparently the gas extraction and distribution network leaks (between 4-12% by volume, see http://dx.doi.org/10.2147/EECT.S61539). Since methane has a potent greenhouse warming potential, that leakage rate is unacceptable. So short-lived climate pollutants are a serious problem for preserving a livable world. CARB needs to take all necessary steps to reduce SLCPs to a level commensurate with a stable climate. Thanks for trying to keep the world safe for my children!
