September 30th (Thu) Graduate School Seminar / Shim Chang-seop Senior Research Fellow

Climate environment and fine dust

Entering the Anthropogene, the United Nations has set the sustainability of humanity in the 21st century as a goal for survival. Climate change and the environment are based on the same cause, and environmental pollution is emerging as one of the important factors determining human lifespan. Even in the era of pandemic, people's concerns about environmental pollution are still great, and concerns about fine dust are still one of the biggest environmental issues in Korea. Through the seminar, the speaker intends to quantitatively explain the nature of fine dust, its occurrence and causes, and its characteristics in Korea. We will also discuss solutions to address domestic fine dust in the future. And we would like to discuss the prospects and challenges of the atmospheric environment in the carbon-neutral era.
