I always assumed it was the greenhouse gases from gasoline that caused issues. What kind of damage does heat, water vapor, and grease cause?
The gasses seem to add to the greenhouse effect. Particulate matter from diesel is hard on the lungs. This problem appeared in the newspaper at my home town, right when i moved out.
Char is just what it sounds like. Charred particulate matter. Charring a veggie burger is no different. But who really does that anyway lol.
