Researchers have mapped the country's carbon footprint. The data is mostly from 2002. Next they plan to pinpoint CO2 down to each rooftop.
This site not only talks about the research but also presents the results of the research in the form of a YouTube video. The animated graphics in the video give the impression of a pump which is disgorging CO2 daily into the atmosphere.
In the video it is very easy to pick out Carbon County, Wyoming, in one of the maps which shows the release of CO2 into the atmosphere. This is the county where much of the nation's coal is being mined.
