The United Kingdom just released the updated Spatial Emissions Methodology for the 2024 National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory: naei.energysecurity.gov.uk/r…
Climate TRACE’s fire emissions data sets were used to track the spatial distribution of biomass fires across the UK, including accidental fires in forest, wetland, and shrubgrass landscapes. 🔥
Recording these kinds of data is crucial as wildfires become more common and intense in a warming world. According to our data, fires across those three categories globally accounted for 10.4 billion of CO2e in 2025: climatetrace.org/explore#adm…
At 4.8 billion tonnes CO2e, August 2026 emissions represented a 0.3% decrease from August 2025. However, total global year-to-date emissions are sitting at 38.5 billion tonnes CO2e — 0.3% higher than the total for the same time period last year.

“Bana uzak” deme, hava kirliliği sınır tanımıyor! Çanakkale’deki santrallerin yarattığı kirlilik rüzgarlarla diğer şehirlere ulaşıyor; havamızı, suyumuzu ve soframızdaki yemeği bile tehdit ediyor. +
@kamilacamilo_ reports back from the 2026 Planetary Health Check at #ClimateWeekNYC. Her column (in Portuguese) explains how seven out of nine critical Earth systems have already been exceeded — but solutions exist to make the planet’s prognosis better. oeco.org.br/colunas/levamos-…
If you want to be a part of the cure, she suggests checking out the Climate TRACE platform to see where major sources of emissions are located near where you live — and explore possible solutions to reduce them. climatetrace.org/air-polluti…
Artificial intelligence is a tool that can be used in a limitless number of ways — including to greatly increase greenhouse gas emissions, or greatly decrease them. Which one will the world choose? 🌎
Climate TRACE co-founder and @wattTime Executive Director Gavin McCormick joins the the debate about the environmental positives and negatives of AI to explain how the technology has been used to better track emissions for our free and open data platform: msn.com/en-us/news/world/beh…
While more countries are working to reduce their national methane emissions, many state and regional governments — which hold direct authority over the landfill, wastewater, and agricultural systems that emit the most — don’t have comprehensive methane action plans in place. 💨
In a first-of-its-kind partnership under the Subnational Methane Action Coalition, the Maryland Department of the Environment and UC Berkeley Center for Law, Energy, and the Environment (CLEE) are working together to strengthen methane action in the US state of Maryland.
We’re glad to see Climate TRACE data being put to work in this joint effort. Learn how testing these tools in Maryland will help improve them for other subnational leaders around the world: clee.berkeley.edu/maryland-s…
Rice is a staple crop for more than one billion people, but across South Asia, high-resolution information about where it grows remains limited. That kind of data is critical to support food security assessments, agricultural monitoring, and climate-related research. 🍚
That’s why members of the Climate TRACE team analyzed satellite imagery to contribute to SARice: a new 10 m-resolution dataset of rice extent and cropping frequency across South Asia for 2020-2021. Learn more in @ScientificData : nature.com/articles/s41597-0…
Reducing carbon dioxide emissions tends to be the main focus of efforts to combat climate change, but there are plenty of other superpollutants that have an outsized impact on global temperatures — some of which can be cut much faster.
For example, methane is a potent greenhouse gas. Climate TRACE estimates that the top 10% of landfills we monitor account for 70% of methane emissions from waste. That's valuable data for decision-makers working with limited resources that want to make the most impact.
In a new @Reuters op-ed, Maria Mendiluce of the @WMBtweets explores why tackling superpollutant sources needs to be a key part of climate action: reuters.com/sustainability/c…
Decarbonization across our planet is critical, but the most effective pathways to get there vary from place to place. 🛣️
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-s…
For example, Climate TRACE and @GlobalEnergyMon 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/stren…
