US EditionGore's Climate TRACE Launches Neighborhood-Scale Soot Tracking Across 2,500 Cities
- On Wednesday, Climate TRACE, a nonprofit co-founded by Al Gore, launched a satellite and AI tool to track deadly soot pollution worldwide.
- Gore began this project after working with people in Memphis opposing a crude oil pipeline that threatened their drinking water aquifer.
- The system uses 300 satellites and 30,000 sensors to monitor 662 million pollution sources, including 3,937 super emitters across 2,500 cities globally.
- Gore explained that burning the same types of fuels generates both greenhouse gases and fine particle pollution, the latter of which is responsible for the deaths of nearly 9 million people worldwide each year.
- This technology could empower communities with pollution data, promoting political support to replace high-emission facilities with cleaner alternatives.

Al Gore’s AI-Driven Pollution Tracker Targets Soot Emissions in 2,500 Cities - American Faith
Former Vice President Al Gore has unveiled a global expansion of his satellite-based pollution tracking system to monitor deadly soot emissions down to the neighborhood level. The initiative, part of his Climate TRACE coalition, now includes real-time tracking of particulate pollution in 2,500 cities worldwide—marking a dramatic leap in environmental surveillance capabilities. The upgraded system uses over 300 satellites, 30,000 ground sensors, …
Al Gore Expands AI Tracking Of Global Soot Pollution
Former Vice President Al Gore has expanded his Climate TRACE initiative to track soot pollution worldwide using satellites and artificial intelligence. The system, announced Wednesday, monitors 137,095 pollution sources, including nearly 4,000 classified as “super emitters.” Data is drawn from 300 satellites and 30,000 sensors. Unlike methane, soot does not directly warm the planet, but it comes from fossil fuel combustion and is linked to milli…
The Savage Nation – MichaelSavage.com – Al Gore Is Watching You: New Satellite and AI System Traces Pollution Sources
Consider yourself warned. A coalition led by former Democratic Vice President Al Gore is using artificial intelligence (AI) and satellite systems to track pollution in local neighborhoods around the world while pinpointing the very houses and backyards it comes from. AP reports Gore, who started Climate TRACE, uses the aforementioned systems to monitor the location…
Al Gore's satellite and AI system is tracking sources of deadly soot pollution
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 monitoring approaching storms under plans by a nonprofit coalition led by former Vice President Al Gore.
