Climate and Clean Air Coalition

Statement 1 is incorrect because CCAC is not a G20 initiative; it is an independent coalition launched in 2012 with support from various nations and UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme), but it is not formally a G20 initiative. Statement 2 is correct as the CCAC specifically targets short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) which include methane, black carbon, and hydrofluorocarbons, among others. These are potent climate forcers with atmospheric lifespans of days to decades, unlike CO2 which persists for centuries. The coalition's focus on these specific pollutants is well-documented and is its defining characteristic. > CCAC focuses on SLCPs (methane, black carbon, HFCs) and is UNEP-supported, not G20-initiated. Answer: (b).
