In addition, progress is necessary on preparing and
implementing national plans of action on climate change,
including nationally appropriate mitigation action and
national adaptation plans of action. Complementary action
to address short-lived climate forcers – black carbon,
methane and tropospheric ozone, which are air pollutants
that also warm the planet – can cost-effectively reduce
the rate of temperature increase in the near term while
reducing risks to human health and food production.
