The CCAC is the only international initiative working on integrated climate and clean air solutions to reduce the rate of near-term warming. It focuses on fast action to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) including methane, black carbon, HFCs, and tropospheric ozone. More information on the CCAC is available at: www.ccacoalition.org. Guidance on the CCAC's National Planning Methodology for reducing short-lived climate pollutants is available in the Resource Library. Brazil has been showing commitment and leadership in tackling super pollutants through several national and international policy frameworks and initiatives. The country became a CCAC member in June 2023 and has served as CCAC Co-Chair since June 2024, represented by the Secretariat of Urban Environment, Water Resources and Environmental Quality of the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (SQA/MMA). Brazil is also part of the Global Methane Pledge (GMP) and a Party to the Kigali Amendment. Through its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), Brazil has committed to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by 2050, and actions to reduce short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) were reflected in sectoral mitigation plans under the new Brazil Climate Plan. Furthermore, in 2024, the National Air Quality Policy was established to strengthen adequate air quality monitoring the country, and alignment with climate policies. With CCAC support, Brazil has implemented a package of 5 projects to support sectoral mitigation policies in agriculture, waste, transport, and cooling, in collaboration with the respective sectoral Ministries and partners in the country.
