Global Energy and Emissions Ownership Lead @ Climate TRACE & Global Energy Monitor | https://climatetrace.org/ | https://globalenergymonitor.org/projects/global-energy-ownership-tracker/

Opinions are my own
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

I'm getting ready to present at the @ifcorg.bsky.social and @dnb-nl.bsky.social event on "Sustainability data issues and central banks' experience". Can't wait to increase data interoperability and #opendata in the #ClimateFinance space!

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
Tracing fossil gas finance isn’t easy — but transparency matters.

GEM’s new #GasFinance Tracker shows $26B USD in project finance for nearly 400 LNG terminals & power plants across 13 Asian countries.

Excellent study and use of ownership data - love the focus on Scope 1
A new study compared Climate TRACE emissions data to emissions disclosure reports from 279 companies, finding that 75 of those companies were significantly underreporting their emissions. www.ft.com/content/0392...

The #SEC backing away from defending the Climate Related Financial Disclosure rules they spent YEARS building is not surprising under the trump presidency, but it's still disappointing to see

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.

I got really frustrated with people calling AI models Open Source that aren't, so we wrote about why open source AI is not open source software.

This is fantastic work with informative graphics! Everyone should take the time to read @isabellamweber.bsky.social 's entire thread.

I particularly love this sankey diagram and I love the "Profits flow disproportionately to the most affluent, white, and highly educated Americans" graph
NEW PAPER: The 2022 fossil fuel price jumps caused an oil and gas profit explosion. We show the US reaped the largest profit increase (USD 275bn) of any country. Big Oil claims this benefits the American people. In fact, 51% went to the richest 1%, only 1% to the bottom 50%. A 🧵
