The impact of global air pollution on climate and the environment is a new focus in atmospheric science. Intercontinental transport and hemispheric air pollution by ozone jeopardize agricultural and natural ecosystems worldwide and have a strong effect on climate. Aerosols, which are spread globally but have a strong regional imbalance, change global climate through their direct and indirect effects on radiative forcing. In the 1990s, nitrogen oxide emissions from Asia surpassed those from North America and Europe and should continue to exceed them for decades. International initiatives to mitigate global air pollution require participation from both developed and developing countries.
全球空气污染对气候和环境的影响是大气科学中的一个新焦点。洲际传输以及臭氧造成的半球空气污染危及全球的农业和自然生态系统，并对气候产生强烈影响。气溶胶在全球范围内扩散，但存在严重的区域不平衡，通过其对辐射强迫的直接和间接影响改变全球气候。在20世纪90年代，亚洲的氮氧化物排放量超过了北美和欧洲，并且在未来几十年内仍将继续超过它们。减轻全球空气污染的国际倡议需要发达国家和发展中国家的共同参与。
