Thanks to a group of researchers publishing daily carbon emissions from 1500 cities around the world upi can see how much carbon dioxide your city produces each day. Click the link to find out more.
One of the challenges in reducing carbon emissions is knowing how much you are already producing. Only then is it possible to accurately plan how to make future emissions lower.
The website is the work of Da Huo and Zhu Liu at Tsinghua University in Beijing with colleagues, a development of their earlier research that provides near real-time estimates of carbon emissions per country. Then there is the detailed accounting necessary to add up all the sources of carbon emissions in each city in way that makes them comparable. The team have used data on daily power generation, on local industrial production, on ground transport based on traffic congestion, aviation emissions from flight radar records and residential heating and ventilation demand based on the daily temperature.
However, in terms of the variation in emissions between 2020 and 2021, Berlin comes out top of the rankings having increased emissions by over 10 per cent while Cape Town, Tokyo and Sydney have all kept their emissions constant.
