Parallel Pursuit of Near-Term and Long-Term Climate Mitigation

In the Science Policy Forum, Stacy Jackson argues that pollutants with shorter lifetimes than carbon dioxide (CO2) should receive comparable attention as CO2 , which has a long lifetime in the atmosphere.
I wonder how such a parallel pursuit is facilitated by the current agreements, especially for developed countries, but also by developing countries. Or do we need another treaty in addition to the Copenhagen agreement?
