To develop impactful decarbonization plans, decisionmakers need to know where and when greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions are occurring. Our coalition’s mission is to get them that data — and make it as easy to put into practice as possible.

The Iran war is driving clean energy development. It's not enough to help the planet, yet
Countries are embracing clean power and taking steps to use less energy because of the war against Iran. But it is not yet enough to help address climate change.

Directa estimates that the expansion of Barcelona’s airport could amount to up to 60% of Catalonia’s CO2 emissions cap between 2031 and 2035 — but those emissions will not be counted towards their regional greenhouse gas inventories.

Blue NDCs merge ocean protection and climate goals — but how will these goals be realised? - OceanMind
Last November at COP30, 17 nations — led by France and Brazil — united around the Blue NDC Challenge, which calls for including ocean-based solutions in national climate action plans. The challenge launched earlier that year during the third UN Ocean Conference in Nice, France.  By making these commitments part of their Nationally Determined Contributions […]

🏭 🌍 The geographic footprint of #coal dev't is narrowing sharply. Only 32 countries were proposing or building new plants in '25 — less than 1/2 the 75 countries doing so in '14 A 🧵 on key findings from GEM’s 11th annual Boom & Bust Coal report, out today 👇 globalenergymonitor.org/research/boo...
A graphic by GEM featuring text on a dark teal gridded background next to an image of a coal power plant with a wind turbine in the foreground. The text reads: "In 2025, the world built more coal power capacity but used it less. Booming wind & solar are pushing coal into a backup role as system insurance."
