Al Gore and Gavin McCormick unveil unprecedented Climate TRACE emissions data at COP29

At COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan Climate TRACE co-founders Al Gore and Gavin McCormick presented the latest Climate TRACE emissions inventory. For the first time, this inventory provides monthly emissions data for every country and every major individual source of emissions in the world. Climate TRACE has now compiled monthly emissions inventories for every state and province, every county, and more than 9,000 major urban areas around the world, providing subnational governments with critical information to accelerate climate action. These urban areas account for 17 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e), or more than 25% of global emissions. In another new breakthrough, Climate TRACE now also tracks key non-GHG air pollutants for the world’s largest single point sources of emissions, including pollutants that are implicated in millions of deaths around the world every year. BEYOND NATIONAL TOTALS: THE VALUE OF STATE AND LOCAL INVENTORIES Many state and local inventories rely on national averages to estimate emissions at the regional level. But Climate TRACE data show that actual emissions within the world’s cities and states can differ significantly from national averages. Across all countries worldwide, the average state or province is a remarkable 47% higher or lower emissions per capita than their national average. KEY INSIGHTS IN GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS Climate TRACE’s annual data release provides important updates and insights on global climate progress: ➡️ Greenhouse gas emissions break a new record, have yet to peak. Global greenhouse gas emissions rose 0.7% in 2023, and we will likely see another slight increase – 0.48% – in 2024. ➡️ Persistent underreporting of oil and gas emissions continues, largely due to methane. For the fourth year in a row, Climate TRACE data show that oil and gas emissions from production and transport are three times higher than reported and not yet updated in official inventories, despite pledges for increased transparency and mitigation. ➡️ “Low-hanging fruit” opportunities for decarbonization are among those with the greatest potential impact near-term. Climate TRACE asset-level data includes emissions intensity metrics for individual facilities, allowing easy identification of the facilities that have not yet implemented “low-hanging fruit” emissions-reducing measures such as energy efficiency or covering leaks. ➡️ High-impact opportunities for emissions reductions are disproportionately concentrated in developing countries. More than 80% of the assets with the highest emissions intensity in the world are located in developing countries. ➡️ Methane emissions steadily rise, despite global pledge. At COP26, the Global Methane Pledge set a global goal to reduce methane emissions at least 30% by 2030. However, Climate TRACE data shows that global methane emissions are now 5.17% higher than the 2020 baseline. NEW AND IMPROVED FEATURES IN THIS DATA RELEASE With this data release, Climate TRACE’s global inventory now includes: 📍More than 660 million assets, with increased coverage of the smaller and harder to spot sources of emissions. 📍Inventories for every state and province as well as more than 9,000 urban areas. 📍2023 and 2024 emissions data for all these locations and assets. 📍Moving beyond annual to monthly data releases. Climate TRACE will begin releasing monthly data at a regular cadence beginning in Q1 2025. 📍Monthly data for all sectors and assets from January 2021 through present including projections of November and December 2024. 📍Non-GHG air pollutant data at the asset level, representing more than 75% of global emissions of: →Sulfur dioxide (SO2) (82.8 million tonnes/year) →Nitrogen oxides (NOx) (95.2 million tonnes/year) →Organic carbon (12.8 million tonnes/year) →Black carbon (5.6 million tonnes/year) →Carbon monoxide (527.8 million tonnes) As well as: →28.3 million tonnes of ammonia →111.2 million tonnes of volatile organic compounds →25.2 million tonnes of directly emitted particulate matter 2.5 📍Granular buildings data that shows emissions for all 1km x 1km areas with buildings globally. 📍Highly detailed datasets, including uncertainty and temporal disaggregation, for climate modelers and other experts available upon request.
