Getting worse — based on the last 9 years of measured data.

What we know · what we don't

Confidence reflects how completely Climate TRACE has measured this country’s emissions; coverage shows the share of those emissions we can tie to a named owner. Both feed the 0–100 Climate Damage Score above. Untraced emissions are real — they just don’t yet have a named owner in the open datasets we use.
