A massive simulation of soot's climate effects finds that basic pollution controls could put a brake on global warming, erasing in a decade most of the last century's temperature change. Compared to ...

STANFORD, CA --Soot, the familiar black residue that coats fireplaces and darkens truck exhaust, may be a leading cause of global warming. A study in the current issue of the journal Nature indicates ...

EPA is tightening a key air pollution standard for the first time in more than a decade, overturning a Trump-era decision to leave soot regulations unchanged. Direct and indirect sources of airborne ...

Due to the fact that 100% efficiency cannot be achieved by any engine, products other than water and carbon dioxide will be formed during combustion, such as soot, which is formed as a result of ...

The exhaust from diesel-fueled vehicles, wood fires and coal-driven power stations contains small particles of soot that flow out into the atmosphere. The soot is a scourge for the climate but also ...

The Environmental Protection Agency is tightening the standard for how much soot in the air is safe to breathe. Fine particles come from the combustion of fossil fuels by cars and industrial ...

Q: We have a modified two-story home. The carpet in the upstairs bedrooms has a dark 1-inch stain on the edge above our garage. Our carpet is 18 years old, and we will probably replace it in the next ...

The result of a 4-year, 232-page climate assessment is in. Dirty burning, it turns out, is the second most important man-made contributor to global warming, behind carbon dioxide. In fact, soot ...

Soot particles from oil and wood heating systems as well as road traffic can pollute the air in Europe on a much larger scale than previously assumed. The evaluation of the sources during a measuring ...
