Black carbon heated the earth twice as strongly as predicted

Scientists say black carbon, produced during the burning of wood and diesel engine emissions, is responsible for two times as much global warming as we think.

The burning process of wood and diesel creates a kind of black carbon that, when deposited on the surface of the body, forms soot or soot. The latest research published on Tuesday confirms that black carbon has twice the impact on global warming compared to what people had previously speculated. It quickly became the second factor in the greenhouse gas emissions and climate change scale.

Recognizing the danger of black carbon helps humankind identify more ways to limit global warming. With about 7.5 million tons of carbon black emissions introduced into the environment in 2000 alone, this substance contributes to the earth's polarity.

In Asia and Africa, burning and burning fires or grasslands are the main cause of carbon black emissions into the atmosphere. Meanwhile, the use of coal fuel is the source of carbon black in Eastern Europe and China. However, in European countries, North America and Latin America, these emissions are generated from a large number of diesel-powered engines.

According to scientists' explanation, black carbon heats the atmosphere by absorbing heat from the sun and dispersing it into the air, causing the average temperature to rise. It also promotes cloud formation, creating more heat by reducing the intensity of reflections of ice and snow at the poles.

New research on black carbon involves 31 leading experts from around the world, with the aim of reviewing all the data to demonstrate the impact of black carbon on climate and atmosphere. With the warning that carbon black will heat the atmosphere in a short time, people need to take action immediately to handle this gas before they cause serious effects on human life.
