Arctic Council Misses Opportunity to Cut Climate Warming Super Pollutants

Responding to the publication of the Arctic Council’s Romssa-Tromsø Statement, published on May 12th, Dr Sian Prior, Lead Advisor to the Clean Arctic Alliance said:
“The Romssa-Tromsø Statement issued by the Arctic Council is a missed opportunity to acknowledge the impact that global climate heating is having on the Arctic, which is warming four times faster than anywhere else on earth, the consequences that the Arctic climate crisis is having for the rest of the planet, and on reducing the impact on the region from short-lived climate super pollutants like black carbon and methane”.
