Panel Discsussion
- Are technologies available and practicable for reduction of relevant
global air pollution (especially BOCs, O3, O3
precursors including CH4, CO, NOx, and VOCs),
and what are the "co-benefit" implications for CO2?
What information/research is needed to better address this issue?
Panel Discussion
- What are real-world expectations based on the case studies for
different cities, states, and countries? Are there discrepancies with
the conclusions of the preceding panel discussion?
What information/research is needed to better address this issue?
