I wrote a new piece for @climatetrace.org on ownership data. At @globalenergymon.bsky.social , we’ve found that asset-level #ownership mapping is essential for improving #climate accountability, financial disclosure, and analysis of corporate control structures.

Australia, companies with #ownership obscured through nominee structures account for 23 million tonnes of #fossilfuel CO2 #emissions every year — about 18% of the national total. The interactive data tools are great too! You can dig into asset level #emissions and #ownership

An honor to connect with Al Gore at #ClimateWeekNYC. GEM contributes ownership data through our Global Energy Ownership Tracker as the sector lead in the @climatetrace.org coalition he co-founded — linking emissions to the companies most responsible.

Really important new dataset in the #fossilfuel space! Combining this data with equity data, such as what is in the Ownership Tracker, is an amazing next step for corporate #emissions transparency and independent verification

These should not be considered “emergency projects” and the fact that this project class means communities and local can’t weigh in on the impact of this fossil fuel projects is unacceptable in a democracy.

The latest Global Coal Plant Tracker update is live! Key trends: ➡️ 🇨🇳 leads coal expansion, w/more proposals, construction starts, and capacity than the rest of the world combined. ➡️ 🇮🇳 made up 80% of the 47 GW of new proposals outside China. Get the data: globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...
Bar chart showing proposals, construction starts, and coal capacity brought online in 2024 are higher in China than the rest of the world combined. The bars in gigawatts compare coal-fired power capacity by status and region, in gigawatts (GW). Proposed capacity: China 69 GW, Rest of World 47 GW. Construction started: China 94 GW, Rest of World 7 GW. Started operating: China 31 GW, Rest of World 14 GW. Source: Global Coal Plant Tracker, January 2025.

Excellent explainer on USG efforts to build 'early warning systems' to detect geoengineering. Such efforts to baseline and model aerosols could support multilateral agreements regulating geoengineering (trust but verify) though I think they could support potential future USG SAI research too.
