Methane, Black Carbon Threaten Glaciers, Warns Himachal Report

A report released by Himachal Pradesh chief minister Shri Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu recently has emphasized on urgent action against short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) such as methane and black carbon. According to the report titled ‘Scientific Assessment of Tackling Non-CO2 Emissions: Pathways for Himachal Pradesh’, these “super pollutants” pose severe environmental and socio-economic risks for the Himalayan state. Black carbon deposits on snow reduce reflectivity, accelerating glacier melt, while methane drives near-term temperature rise, increasing the likelihood of extreme rainfall, floods, and landslides. The report identifies transport, livestock, and residential solid biomass use as the primary sources of SLCPs in Himachal Pradesh, directly affecting air quality and climate stability.
