Energy Access and Clean Air: Cutting Carbon, Improving Health - Webinar (June 28, 2012)
Abstract: The infrared bands of chlorofluorocarbons and chlorocarbons enhance the atmospheric greenhouse effects. These gases arise from the burning of organic material, such as indoor cooking or slash and burn agriculture. This enhancement may lead to an appreciable increase in the global surface temperature if the atmospheric concentrations of these compounds reach values of the order of 2 parts per billion.
