Emissions Tracking
Loading data from 2,765,771 emissions sources summarized from 901,019,777 assets.

Independent emissions data
built for action

Climate TRACE is an open coalition that traces greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants around the world to their sources: revealing where they come from, how they’re changing, and what specific actions can reduce them.

  • We're tracking…901M assets globally
  • Across…67 sectors
  • Tallied for…9,000 cities
  • And every…county, state, province, and country

See the emissions that matter to you, from the global picture down to individual sources.

Real-Time and Forecasted Industrial Pollution

Visualize how air pollution from 387,035 industrial sources is moving across the globe today, using real weather data.

Data in action

Analyze what’s driving emissions and what’s working to reduce them. And see how governments, companies, and communities around the world are using Climate TRACE data in action.

  • Policy

    See analyses of the real-world impact of different policies, data-driven ways to make policies more impactful, and see examples of how policymakers are using Climate TRACE today.

    Domestic aviation emissions, 2023 vs. 2025

    Domestic aviation emissions after the short-haul flight bans, 2023 to 2025: −16% at Paris Orly and −22% across Austria.
  • Operations

    Climate TRACE tracks what specific Emissions Reducing Solutions successfully lowered emissions at different assets worldwide, and offers tools and insights to help similar assets learn from what worked for their peers.

    Algoma Steel, emissions per tonne of steel, 2025

    Emissions per tonne of steel fell from 1.90 to 1.30 t CO₂e between June and July 2025, when Algoma's first electric arc furnace started making steel.
  • Accountability

    Check any emissions claim against independent consensus estimates. Look up any plant, port, or refinery, and see how it affects the air over your own city and contributes to the climate crisis. Self-reported figures routinely miss what satellites and remote sensing can observe.

    Same coal, up to 29× the methane

    Methane per tonne of coal varies 29-fold across 398 US coal mines. Where the cleanest mines operate beside the dirtiest, the means to capture that methane are likely already available.
  • Finance

    Lenders, investors, and buyers are pricing Climate TRACE emissions data into decisions that move thousands of assets at once. Learn how you can too.

    An Egyptian bank’s corporate loan book

    Climate Risk Services used Climate TRACE asset-level data to estimate financed emissions for 80%+ of a leading Egyptian bank’s corporate loan book, and to raise its PCAF data quality scores.

Global emissions at-a-glance

From coal, to gas, to biomass. A detailed look at the world’s power plants.

By combining satellite data with measured electricity production, Climate TRACE offers emissions insight into more than 11,500 power plants and grids at the local, national, and global level.
