Faster, more-effective decarbonization starts with detailed knowledge of emissions sources.

Climate TRACE is a detailed database of human-caused emissions from all major sources—from power plants and oil refineries to rice cultivation, cement production, and shipping. This emissions inventory combines direct observations of emissions sources, remote sensing, and troves of industry data to estimate emissions, unlocking more opportunities for meaningful action to decarbonize.
