The article offers the authors' insights on short-term strategies which can help in slowing down the global warming. They mention that cutting emissions of four other climate pollutants such as black carbon, methane, and hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) is one of the strategies to slow down the warming. They state such reduction can have a potential slash to the level of global warming if it done globally.
