🚚 GHG emissions increased in agriculture, buildings, and waste, while decreasing in fossil fuel operations, manufacturing, and power. The transportation sector saw the greatest change in emissions year over year, with emissions increasing by 2.5% compared to July 2025.
Check out the notes for more details — data enthusiasts in particular will want to check out some updates we’ve made to our methodologies 🤓 climatetrace.org/news/climat…
Countries are coming to terms with the fact that transitioning to clean power ensures energy security when disruptions like the war in Iran spike oil and gas prices. @AP takes a closer look at how geopolitical instability affects global emissions: apnews.com/article/iran-war-…
The push for more renewable energy has reduced greenhouse gas emissions from the power sector. But due to changes in other sectors, Climate TRACE data from the first half of the year found that global emissions increased 0.2% compared to 2025: climatetrace.org/news/climat…
@La_Directa estimates that the expansion of Barcelona’s airport could amount to up to 60% of Catalonia’s CO2 emissions cap between 2031 and 2035 — but those emissions will not be counted towards their regional greenhouse gas inventories.
“L’aeroport de Barcelona ja emet més que tots els habitatges de Catalunya junts i també més que tota l’activitat de Repsol al país”, afirma la investigadora en justícia climàtica de l’ODG Claudia Custodio, part de la plataforma Zeroport directa.cat/les-emissions-da…
The article (in Catalan) uses Climate TRACE data to delve into the challenge of calculating and accounting for emissions from international air travel in climate action plans.
Carbon pricing systems can be useful tools to incentivize greenhouse gas emissions reductions, but how can the international community ensure these efforts are as equitable and efficient as possible?
The @Harvard and @MIT Global Climate Policy Program outlines how countries could coordinate carbon pricing measures to deliver 15 times greater emissions reductions than current policies and generate over $145 billion annually for participating countries: science.org/eprint/MM7YFFPGF…
Using baseline emissions and production datasets from Climate TRACE and CRU Group, the researchers demonstrate what this coalition approach could achieve in four heavily emitting sectors: iron and steel, aluminum, cement, and fertilizers: salatainstitute.harvard.edu/…
Satellite imagery and AI-driven data are already exposing the extent of greenhouse gas emissions and other air pollutants around the world, but how can decisionmakers use these data to develop more effective climate action plans?
Climate TRACE is teaming up with #ClimateIQ to host an interactive webinar to highlight how our asset-level data and transition planning tools can support high-impact decarbonization efforts.
🗓️ Date: September 30, 2026
⏰ Time: 4:00 pm BST
The session will feature perspectives from subnational climate organizations that are already using these tools, so other policymakers, technical analysts, and science-policy practitioners can take advantage of them too.

According to a new @UNEP report, global temperatures will rise beyond 1.5°C in the next few years, overshooting the threshold that experts agreed would prevent the world from experiencing the worst impacts of climate change: unep.org/news-and-stories/pr…
Now more than ever, the world needs to work together to cut greenhouse gas emissions as quickly as possible. Climate TRACE’s Emissions Reduction Roadmap can help support these ambitious decarbonization decisions: climatetrace.org/reduce/coun…
Leaders of all kinds from around the world are already taking action. We’ve collected just a few examples of projects that are making a difference and that can be implemented more broadly across their respective sectors: climatetrace.org/case-studie…
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, but because it has a relatively short atmospheric lifespan, reducing these emissions quickly opens up a crucial opportunity to mitigate global temperature rise.
A powerful new tool to analyze methane plumes using satellite data – developed through a collaboration between Google Earth AI and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory – boosts the world's ability to track and mitigate methane emissions: research.google/blog/mapping…
Our data fusion team worked with the MAPL-EMIT team to compare their approach with existing methane data that Climate TRACE tracks from satellites, models, and inventories. Learn how we track methane emission trends and opportunities for action: climatetrace.org/news/manage…
