I‘d love to see a list of the largest emitters.
- thegrim22 3y agoThe fact that they decided not to mention who the largest emitters are should clue you into who it is.
- p1mrx 3y agoUgh, don't tell me it's those goddamn humans again.
- rootusrootus 3y agoSoutheast Asia? At least from the map someone else linked to, that seems to be a good part of the answer. Admittedly, I need to be smacked pretty hard with the clue bat because it isn't as apparent to me as it is to you.

- IAmGraydon 3y agoI agree - it would be great if the data was public. I’m sure a large amount of this comes from natural gas flares.
- dsukhin 3y agoThe data is indeed public [0]. But beware, it’s huge to download; it’s also available in a hosted/queryable interface on Google Earth Engine [1].
