For example, Climate TRACE and @globalenergymon.bsky.social have been working with Arc to paint more detailed pictures of all assets in a company’s portfolio, improving our understanding of their associated emissions: arcconnect.global/news/strengt...
This new report from Arc highlights how localized asset-level data can help build a more accurate picture of a company’s real-world footprint and help decision-makers choose the most relevant ways they can contribute to the clean energy transition: arcconnect.global/news/one-siz...
Decarbonization across our planet is critical, but the most effective pathways to get there vary from place to place. 🛣️
The analysis is based on data on vessel activity in nautical miles and emissions in tonnes CO2e allocated between origin and destination ports — the same methodology they use to format Climate TRACE shipping data: climatetrace.org/explore#admi...
Their analysis reveals that combined monthly shipping activity and corresponding emissions dropped a whopping 97% between January and May 2026, and traffic remains low even today: oceanmind.global/knowledge-hu...
Our shipping sector lead OceanMind examines how the Strait of Hormuz crisis has affected shipping traffic across the Persian Gulf, and by extension, the emissions from those vessels and ports.
Learn how these data-driven tools and insights can help ensure that the country’s economic development strategies also benefit the local communities that power Zambia’s mining industry: climatetrace.org/news/cleanin...
We can also track how harmful particulate matter (PM2.5) drifts from mining facilities towards surrounding communities. Watch how wind conditions can blow PM2.5 plumes from two “super emitters” on the border of Kitwe both into the city and towards neighboring Ndola.
The people of the Copperbelt have been living with chronic harmful air pollution for decades. We estimate that the blue dots on this map, which represent a dozen operations between major urban centers, emitted 7.6 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) in 2025.
The Central African Copperbelt is the world’s largest source of copper and cobalt, which are both crucial components for sustainable technologies. For the green transition to be truly clean, we need to understand how extracting these critical minerals impacts local communities.
Last month, Climate TRACE’s Benedicte de Gelder joined @unep-ccc.bsky.social experts to discuss how granular methane emissions data can help decision-makers identify, prioritize, develop, and monitor landfill methane mitigation projects: unepccc.org/events/webin...
Methane is second only to carbon dioxide in contributing to climate change. However, many solutions to reduce methane emissions are achievable relatively quickly, with landfill gas capture, flaring, and energy recovery presenting some of the best mitigation opportunities.
N2O is about 300 times more potent than CO2, making ambitious action in the agricultural sector critical to protecting both our climate and health. Our data on nitrous oxide emissions were used to identify where synthetic fertilizer use is most intensive: climatetrace.org/explore#admi...
Synthetic nitrogen fertilizers can boost agricultural yields, but excess nitrogen can flow into nearby waterways. MSCI Institute maps where nitrate pollution poses a risk to European food and beverage manufacturing facilities that rely on clean water: www.msci-institute.com/themes/risk-...
Climate TRACE’s Benedicte De Gelder and Anthony Russo will guide attendees in exploring our asset-level data and transition planning tools, while Honorine van den Broek d'Obrenan will share how @c40cities.bsky.social is already using them.
On Wednesday, September 30, at 4pm BST, we’re hosting an interactive #ClimateIQ webinar highlighting how policymakers, technical analysts, and science-policy practitioners can use satellite imagery and AI-based tools for climate action planning: universitiesforclimate.org/events/satel...
To develop impactful decarbonization plans, decisionmakers need to know where and when greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions are occurring. Our coalition’s mission is to get them that data — and make it as easy to put into practice as possible.
Check out the notes for more details — data enthusiasts in particular will want to check out some updates we’ve made to our methodologies 🤓 climatetrace.org/news/climate...
🚚 GHG emissions increased in agriculture, buildings, and waste, while decreasing in fossil fuel operations, manufacturing, and power. The transportation sector saw the greatest change in emissions year over year, with emissions increasing by 2.5% compared to July 2025.
🌍 Global GHG emissions for the month totaled 4.9 billion tonnes CO2e, an increase of 0.1% since July 2025. Total global year-to-date emissions are 33.7 billion tonnes CO2e, 0.3% higher than 2025’s total for the same time period.
