Geographically scale and map data for priority planning

Use the calculation power of CO₂Sight to evaluate and compare emissions reduction pathways and specific measures in the near- and long-term. Experiment with scenarios to define needed degrees of efficiency, electrification, and low emissions vehicle use while staying in the range of feasibility. Then integrate with changes in energy supply resources and other emitting sectors. Scale from the state or territory-level, metropolitan regions, and cities and counties to understand coordinated action and target priority areas.
