What is black carbon? With science communicator & YouTuber, Simon Clark

“If you can target black carbon, you have a huge impact over a very short period of time,” says science communicator and YouTuber, Simon Clark.

From clean cooking devices and fuels, to the phasing out of diesel vehicles, we’re spotlighting the black carbon solutions making a difference, today.
