ScienceNew tool directly links carbon emissions to environmental and economic damage

The Carbon Impacts Tracer converts fossil-fuel emissions into estimated real-world effects across eight measures, drawing on peer-reviewed climate studies. Its developers say it can show how projects such as New South Wales’ HVO coal mine could contribute to heat exposure, coral loss, reduced food production and lost labour hours, helping hold major emitters accountable.
