The 8th International Symposium on Non-CO2 Greenhouse Gases (NGG8)
Dates: June 12th - 14th 2019
Location: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Non-CO2 greenhouse gases include many substances, such as methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), fluorocarbons (CFCs, HFCs, SF6, etc), black carbon, aerosols, and tropospheric ozone (O3). These contribute significantly to climate forcing. Reducing non-CO2 greenhouse gas emissions is often more cost-effective than reducing CO2 emissions.
The scope of NCGG8 will be global challenges, and local solutions. The NCGG conferences pay attention to:
- sources, sinks, and atmospheric processes of non-CO2 greenhouse gases;
- mitigation options and emission reduction technologies and practices;
- policies and measures, both in the public and private sectors; and
- the science-policy-industry interface
The symposium invites submission of papers with respect to four themes, covering causes, effects and solutions of the environmental problems associated with non-CO2 greenhouse gases. These papers may report on science (from natural, social, technological or integrated sciences) and policy.
