He stated that a Methodology Report on short-lived climate pollutants will be prepared by the end of 2027: "This report will cover substances such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, non-methane volatile organic compounds, sulfur dioxide, ammonia, black carbon, organic carbon, and primary dust particles, with the exception of methane. The Methodology Report will be developed in the context of recent advancements in atmospheric composition observations, including surface observations and airborne campaigns.
