Black carbon (soot) poses serious health risks and contributes significantly to global warming (IPCC 20-year CO\u2082 equivalent factor of 2421). Yet, measurement sites remain scarce due to high costs.<\/p>\n

bcMeter changes this \u2014 as a cost-effective, source-available platform for a global measurement network.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
