[[{“value”:”Soon people will be able to use satellite technology and artificial intelligence to track dangerous soot pollution in their neighbourhoods and where it comes from in a way not so different from monitoring approaching storms under plans by a nonprofit coalition led by former Vice President Al Gore.
Gore, who started Climate TRACE, which uses satellites to monitor the location of heat-trapping methane sources, on Wednesday expanded his system to track the source and plume of pollution from tiny particles, often referred to as soot, on a neighbourhood basis for 2,500 cities across the world.
Particle pollution kills millions of people worldwide each year and tens of thousands in the United States according to scientific studies and reports.
Gore’s coalition uses 300 satellites, 30,000 ground-tracking sensors and artificial intelligence to track 1,37,095 sources of particle pollution, with 3,937 of them categorised as super emitters for how much they spew.
