Data Reflects Source Release Cycles

Records on PlainCarbon reflect the most recent source data we have processed and can lag an official release. Values can change after we ingest a record, and source data may contain errors or be incomplete. Always confirm the current information directly with the primary source before acting.

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP), which PlainCarbon's 8,713 facility records and 2,290 company profiles are compiled from, the agency typically publishes each year's dataset in the fall covering the prior calendar year. Our own refresh cadence and the exact source vintage behind every figure on this site are documented on the methodology page.

Reporting an Error

If a record looks wrong, use the contact page with the page URL and a source for the correct value. How we verify and fix reports is described in our editorial & corrections policy.
