Some very cool work is happening at Purdue University’s Vulcan Project, closely tracking CO2 and greenhouse gas emissions in the US. As we at PolicyLink say all the time, where you live affects how you live. Living in the Northeast or coal-burning Southeast has a huge impact on the air you breath.

Thanks to Wired’s blog and Andrew Sullivan for the heads-up.

Also, this video does a pretty cool job explaining what’s happening in this map and demystifying the US carbon footprint.
