GW : pollution in Asia - effect in America !!!!

Strange to engulf this topic but the truth really lies behind. The pollution in Asia can really affect the climate in America. According to the authors of a recent federal science report, “ burning wood and kerosene, and driving trucks and cars generate most of these shorter-term particles that can cause more localized warming.” The authors also added that there should be an action plan that must be efficient to attack this type of pollution for rapid results.

According to this report, smog, soot, dust and other perticulate matters that are often seen over the cities of China increase the global warming to a larger extent and surprisingly, can increase the temperature of Heartland, USA by about 3 degrees in 5 decades.

According to the reports of NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, this report was definitely stressing the control of short term pollutants, while urging that CO2 is still the predominent cause of the global warming.

About the short term pollutants :

The short-term pollutants is more seen in Asian countries which is mostly mixed in air by the use of biofuels and kerosenes for e.g. cowdung, wood etc. These short-term pollutants, unlike other pollutants like CO2, are visible to the people. These pollutants, apart from the soot, smog and sulphates, include organic carbon, dust and nitrates.

Suggestions from some scientists :

The scientists suggested that the government of united states should give the priority to reduce the emissions of vehicles like trucks and cars, over the restriction on the coal burning power plants. Also they suggested countries like China and India to start using the CERs i.e. the clean energy resources more and more.
