Tracking CO2 -- Biogeochemists Map Out Carbon Dioxide Emissions In The U.S.

Tracking CO2 -- Biogeochemists Map Out Carbon Dioxide Emissions In The U.S.:
"Biogeochemists located where the most carbon dioxide emissions occur in the U.S. using a new mapping system. With this program-available to anyone on the Web-researchers were able to extract information about carbon dioxide emissions by transforming data on local air pollution and combining it with geographic information systems (GIS) data to layer the emissions onto infrastructures at the Earth's surface."


Watch the video. Pretty amazing.
