Anthony Wexler and his team at the UC Davis Air Quality Research Center have formed a link between toxic substances that pollute the air and what causes them
Your backyard grill could be a big source of toxic air pollution, says Anthony Wexler, director of the UC Davis Air Quality Research Center
Black carbon particles released by burning fuels are far more deleterious than previously estimated by a U.N. report in 2007. “The paper makes a good case that our models are underestimating the effect,” said Christopher D. Cappa, an associate professor of Environmental Science at UC Davis
