210A new study by Chinese Academy of Sciences researchers finds that existing satellites severely underestimate CO₂ emissions from power plants. Analyzing 2021 data from 1,060 U.S. plants, researchers found current satellites detect only 29% of total emissions. The study recommends new satellite systems with finer resolution, higher precision, and daily monitoring to improve emission detection.
