Is black carbon found in your city or neighbourhood? If so, where does it come from?

Answer 1

Black carbon is a common air pollutant found in many urban areas around the world. Black carbon primarily comes from the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, biomass, and biofuels. Sources of black carbon emissions can include transportation (e.g., cars, trucks, buses), industrial processes, and residential cooking and heating (e.g., wood-burning stoves).
