Teaching Climate Change Law & Policy

The UNFCCC Secretariat is working with Google and the Danish Government, as the host of COP 15, to display official UNFCCC greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data for Annex I Parties using Google Maps.

Users can select a world map displaying: total national GHG emissions or removals, as well as emissions or removals from various sectors; absolute numbers (in Gg CO2 equivalent); or relative changes in emissions (in percent compared to the base year level).

This data may be particularly valuable in negotiation simulations, where students “represent” individual countries or regions.
