Crosswalk Labs

Crosswalk Labs Open Data: A tool for Climate Justice Insights and Action ?? The EPA’s guidance to receive Climate Pollution Reduction Grant funding includes a greenhouse gas inventory and analysis of benefits to low-income and disadvantaged communities (LIDACs). ?? To understand how climate impacts vary between communities, decision-makers need granular, community-level data. Statewide averages are not enough. Crosswalk’s Open Data Portal provides greenhouse gas emissions for every census tract in the country empowering leaders with the detailed insights they need to develop targeted and equitable climate plans. open.crosswalk.io #climateaction #localgovernment #openaccess #environmentaljustice

Open Access to Emissions Data Can Empower Over 10,000 Local Governments in the U.S. ? According to CDP, only 170 local governments in the U.S. reported their greenhouse gas emission inventories in 2023. ? The U.S. has 6,366 cities (census-designated places and incorporated places) with a population size of over 5,000; along with 3,143 counties, 574 tribes and 50 states. In total, that list represents 10,133 local governments. ? Data Foundation, in collaboration with Crosswalk Labs, is providing open access to emission inventories for state and local governments, media, non-profits, academia, and the general public.? ? Go to open.crosswalk.io to explore, understand, compare, and use the greenhouse gas emissions data to advance climate action in your community today. #Climate #GHG #Data #Innovation #OpenAccess #Transition #LocalGovernment

Crosswalk Labs, in collaboration with the Data Foundation, announced today the launch of a new resource providing open access to emissions data for every neighborhood in the United States. This announcement marks the first time the public will be able to see and understand the CO2 emissions of their neighborhood -- for every census tract in the country -- and understand how emissions have changed over time. Visit open.crosswalk.io to: See and understand the greenhouse gas emissions for every census tract in the country. Understand how emissions have changed over time through 2023. Understand how one community differs from another. Use these insights to advance local climate action. Thank you to the Doris Duke Foundation, Sam Gill, and Sacha Spector for hosting the announcement, Nick Hart, Ph.D., David J. Hayes, Ryan Alexander, and Sonia Wang for the partnership and collaboration, and The White House National Climate Advisor Ali Zaidi for keynoting the event. And of course, thanks to our fantastic panelists: Kelly S. from Ten Across, Ben Grumbles from Environmental Council of the States (ECOS), Kate Wright of Climate Mayors, and Michel Gelobter from the Yale Center for Environmental Justice. #climate action; #climate data
