The structured data from the CAIT Pre-2020 Pledges Map enables users to explore, compare, and assess climate change mitigation pledges submitted by Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 2009 and 2010. The information related to quantified economy-wide...

Global (i.e., climate-related) threats to the world's coral reefs were analyzed. These include: past thermal stress (i.e., warming seas and bleaching over the last decade), future thermal stress (ie., projections of future warming in 2030 and 2050); and ocean acidification (i.e., reduced ocean...

Transitioning to electric school buses (ESBs) from traditional diesel-powered school buses can reduce students’ exposure to air pollution and decrease greenhouse gas emissions. School districts and private fleet operators around the United States are adopting electric school buses with increasing...

The CAIT Projections module was made available in 2015 and provided ready access to emission projections for major emitters through the year 2100 (if data is available). All data is now available on Climate Watch. In addition to providing emissions data, this tool aims to increase the...

The dataset applies a consistent methodology to create a six-gas, multi-sector, and internationally comparable data set for 197 countries. It enables data analysis by allowing users to quickly narrow down by year, gas, country/state, and sector. Automatic calculations for percent changes from...

Threats from coastal development, marine-based pollution and damage, overfishing and destructive fishing, and watershed-based pollution were analyzed separately. These threats were integrated into the Integrated Local Threat index. Past thermal stress was integrated with local threats into the...

"The Intact Forest Landscapes (IFL) data set identifies unbroken expanses of natural ecosystems within the zone of forest extent that show no signs of significant human activity and are large enough that all native biodiversity, including viable populations of wide-ranging species, could be...

This dataset contains detailed information on the composition of school bus fleets in the United States. It dataset contains data from 46 states and the District of Columbia, though the specific data available vary by state. For most states, the dataset includes bus-level information, such as the...
