TL;DR: Biomass burning emissions account for 10% of anthropogenic energy, posing significant impacts on air quality, human health, and climate change, with global primary PM2.5, black carbon, and organic carbon emissions totaling 51, 4.6, and 29 Tg, respectively.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors conducted a survey on the household energy mix in rural China, which revealed that in 2012, nationally, the average numbers of cooking energy carriers and heating energy sources were 3.4 and 2.5 per household, increasing from 2.0 and 1.2 per household in 1992, respectively.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the impacts of household energy transition on indoor PM2.5 and found that household air pollution was ∼60% lower in families using clean heating approaches compared to those burning traditional coal or biomass fuels.

TL;DR: In this paper , Shen et al. conducted a literature search on available studies in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) region, extracted quantitative data on daily average fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and CO levels from 13 publications published between 2000 and 2018 in English (from the Web of Science or Chinese (from Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure) (Figure 1A ).
