Understand more about lesser known sources of emissions, such as wood burning, livestock housing, soil erosion and diffuse and fugitive sources – in the context of reducing these emissions.
Improve existing abatement technologies and develop new technologies for these sources, together with industry/operators/farmers and manufacturers and promote their implementation
Improve emission data, modelling and monitoring methods.
for these sources.
Undertake further research on the health effects of the different particle fractions and types to enable measures to be further targeted to health benefits.
Identify new and more effective ways of communicating with farmers and other small businesses.
