Climate TRACE
Why trace emissions
moreWe built Climate TRACE to make meaningful climate action faster and easier by tracking greenhouse gas emissions with unprecedented detail, speed, and trusted independence.
Independent estimates for nearly every country and sector
Direct observations from satellites strip out variability introduced by self-reporting.
compare oil, and gas refinery emissions in china and russiaAnalyze the most recent fluctuations in emissions
Updated dynamically with fresh sensor data from space and earth so that we understand the real-time impact of our actions on the planet
EXAMINE THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON AVIATIONAccuracy and resolution improves over time
Constant refinement to machine learning models ensure accuracy and resolution improves over time
MONITOR MONTHLY SHIPPING EMISSIONS BY COUNTRYMany human economic activities put greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere. We use satellites and other sensors to spot these emissions activities.
…not just the big, obvious things but also the tricky ones that move.
...and the less obvious ones.
We combine many sources of information because the more we know about each emissions source, the better we get at finding and measuring them.
Using satellites, ground truth measurements, and artificial intelligence we build models that estimate emissions right at the source.
With more and more information streaming in from space and sensors around the globe our emissions estimates are improving by the day.
Our vision
We make meaningful climate action faster and easier by mobilizing the global tech community to track greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions with unprecedented detail and speed.
