"We’re going to announce at the Climate Trace Coalition this week to track very precisely where the particulate pollution is going and who’s being affected by it and how you can see it and measure it and make the connection yourself if your child has asthma or a member of your family has difficulty breathing for other reasons, you can see exactly where it’s coming from."

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Al Gore, former Vice President:
"This is a new opportunity that the climate trace data makes very available to people. We’re getting a huge pickup of interest from corporates that are doing this. Also some national governments as well, not to mention NGOs and civic society who are using this data."

"And by making the particulate plumes visible, measurable, traceable, connecting it to the health statistics on either side of the plume where the health problems are much less, increases the chance of building coalitions to accelerate this transition away from this unfortunate habit of digging up dead things and burning them to use the skies and open sewer.

"This is the kind of AI that fuses together multiple data streams that we collect from 300 satellites constantly and 30,000 ground-truthing sensors, land, sea, and air-based, to use with machine-learning algorithms to get very accurate, very precise data, both on the global warming pollution and on the particulate pollution."

STORYLINE:
Soon people will be able to use satellite technology and artificial intelligence to track dangerous soot pollution in their neighborhoods — and where it comes from —in a way not so different from approaching storms, former Vice President Al Gore plans.

Gore, who co-founded Climate TRACE that uses satellites to monitor the location of heat-trapping methane, on Wednesday expanded his system to track the source and plume of pollution of tiny particles, often thought of as soot, on the neighborhood basis for 2,500 cities across the world. Particle pollution kills millions of people worldwide — and tens of thousands in the United States — according to scientific studies and reports.

It’s not just seeing the pollutants, but the website shows who is spewing them.
