Annual Review

Environmental Defense Fund Europe are working to promote the uptake of electric vehicles in Europe.

Shipmap.org generates a map of the movements from the global merchant fleet over the course of 2012 and provides a counter for emitted CO2 (in thousand tonnes) and maximum freight carried by represented vessels (varying units).

Globally, the fossil fuel industry is the largest single source of human-caused methane emissions, with the oil and gas industry responsible for the lion’s share. Emissions are projected to rise—particularly in parts of the world where natural gas use is well established and poised for growth. The EU-28 is the second largest consumer of natural gas after the United States and is the largest importer of natural gas globally.

We partnered with National Grid and WWF to create a Carbon Intensity API, which provides an indication of real-time carbon emissions from the electricity grid in Great Britain, together with a 96 hour forecast.
