Carma

What is CARMA? CARMA reveals the carbon emissions of more than 50,000 power plants and 4,000 power companies in every country on Earth.

This is a great site that just went live this week. Notice the map and legend on the home page, the large red dots indicate a plant that produces a lot of electricity and a lot of CO2 while the large green dots indicate a plant that produces a lot of electricity and almost no CO2. There are no large green dots... [EDIT- Upon reloading the Carma page I had a few orange dots show up that were not there before and it was incredibly slow to load, so maybe there are green dots and they are just having trouble at the moment]

Hey,

The CARMA site is one of three that we've been working with to promote the Center for Global Development via search marketing and social media - thanks for helping to spread the word about a really great cause!

We blogged about our work with the Center here: Reprise Media Partners with Center for Global Development
