Cities' climate disclosures fall short of public expectations, revealing a troubling emissions transparency gap.
This study looked at how well cities report their greenhouse gas emissions. Researchers used data from the Carbon Disclosure Project to see if cities are meeting users' expectations. They found that there's a gap between what users want to know and what cities actually report about their emissions. Cities play a big role in reducing greenhouse gases, but there's room for improvement in how they share information about their environmental impact.
