Frequently Asked Questions
These FAQs offer essential insights into the science of climate change, its global implications, and the collective actions required to address it.
How does climate change affect air quality?
Climate change can significantly worsen air quality by increasing the frequency and intensity of wildfires, which produce smoke and particulate matter. It also raises temperatures, leading to the formation of ground-level ozone, a key component of smog.
Which pollutants are most concerning?
+
The most concerning pollutants include particulate matter (PM2.5), ground-level ozone (O3), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and methane (CH4). These harm human health and contribute to the greenhouse effect.
What can individuals do to combat climate change?
