San Francisco environmental emission by zip code
Early this year San Francisco city launched an online project that maps the emissions of green house gases emitted by the various neighborhoods that are tracked by zip code. Not only can citizens keep a track of which neighborhood is producing the most emissions but they will also be able to identify the source of the pollution in terms of energy usage, transportation, etc.
The project was launched on Earth Day and hopes to educate citizens about the environmental impact they're causing in their neighborhoods, and getting them to correct their bad habits.
