Question

Consider the following statements:
1. Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) to Reduce Short Lived Climate Pollutants is a unique initiative of G20 group of countries.
2. The CCAC focuses on methane, black carbon and hydrofluorocarbons.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Accepted Answer

Statement 1 is incorrect. The Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) to Reduce Short-Lived Climate Pollutants is a voluntary partnership of governments, intergovernmental organizations, and civil society, launched in 2012 by a group of countries including Bangladesh, Canada, Ghana, Mexico, Sweden, and the United States, along with the UN Environment Programme (UNEP). It is not an initiative of the G20 group of countries. Statement 2 is correct. The CCAC specifically focuses on reducing short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs), which include methane, black carbon (soot), and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), as these have significant warming impacts and also affect air quality.
