Member spotlight! Global Energy Monitor contributes Climate TRACE data on power plants, coal mines, and more by researching assets around the world. Read this interview with Ted Nace to learn more about this work. climatetrace.org/news/conversat…

A new report from Climate TRACE member org Global Energy Monitor shows that new fossil fuel projects around the world could add 2.4 million metric tons of #methane emissions annually.

Have you ever wondered what the different metrics on the Climate TRACE platform mean?

In the spirit of expanding access to #emissions data, here’s a quick overview. For more, check out our blog post that explores GWP and more: climatetrace.org/news/feeling-t…

Countries’ self-reported emissions data continue to fall short of what is needed to assess changes and meet #climate goals. The gaps in their reporting underscore the importance of independent GHG emissions databases like Climate TRACE. Yale Environment 360 e360.yale.edu/features/under…
