Vision
To create a just, climate-resilient world where science, innovation, and community action restore balance to the planet and empower every generation to thrive.

Grounded in data. Powered by purpose. Built for a cooler planet.
Our research is becoming an open instrument: a living atlas whose country evidence is being re-sourced and independently reviewed.

The Living Globe
Explore a metric-first country dashboard across carbon, power, and physical-climate lenses. All 249 registry entities remain navigable; only exact metric-and-period matches enter each order.
Carbon · territorial fossil CO₂ in 2024, with subtle log-scaled relief and color
Power · 2024 clean generation share, with subtle bounded relief and color
Physical · SSP2-4.5 median projected warming for 2040–2059, with subtle linear relief and color
Neutral pattern · exact comparison metric unavailable, visible and unranked
Map boundaries use generalized Natural Earth 1:110m geometry for navigation only. Twenty-eight small states absent from that dataset use manually curated approximate navigation points, not boundaries or precise centroids. Disputed subfeatures including Northern Cyprus and Somaliland are excluded from the data overlay and never inherit a parent entity’s evidence. None of these representations expresses a position on sovereignty or legal boundaries.
Source & Methodology
Open country data from GCB, UN WPP, Ember, and the World Bank CCKP. Definitions, scope, uncertainty, checksums, and citations expand inside every country card.
Country Cards
Plain-language facts come first; an analyst drawer preserves method, uncertainty, scope, transformation, release checksum, citations, and explicit gap reasons. Fossil CO₂, land use, electricity, and physical climate remain separately labelled.

Trust layer
Open by Design
Most foundations ask you to trust them. We would rather publish what can be checked, disclose what cannot yet be verified, and rebuild the country evidence with explicit sources and tests.
Open Source
The entire site is readable classic scripts — no build step, no minified mystery. Every line is public and inspectable.
Read the sourceOpen Data
The live atlas reads one hashed, reproducible 249-entity source-data release. Source receipts, explicit gaps, scope fingerprints, transformations, and the rollback boundary are published with it.
Read the climate methodologyTruth Checks
Deterministic checks verify source checksums, all 249 identities, exact lens coverage, permitted derivations, scope separation, accessible fallback parity, and the exact release-state boundary.

Remembering Jean
With profound sadness, we announce the unexpected passing of Jean Missinhoun, founder and chairman of the Earth Love United Foundation, on June 1, 2024, at the age of 52. Jean’s unwavering dedication to environmental preservation has left a lasting mark on our world. Originally from Benin, Jean’s journey led him to London, where he thrived as a hedge fund investor focused on energy investments.
Recognizing the critical crossroads our planet is at, Jean committed to advocating for a shift toward green energy solutions. His book, The Green Energy Boom: A Global Quest for Money, Power and Energy, has inspired countless individuals. Under Jean’s visionary leadership, Earth Love United Foundation forged partnerships with nearly a dozen organizations across the globe and initiated groundbreaking research into sustainable energy sources and natural carbon capture solutions such as hemp, mangroves, seagrass, and algae. His belief in inclusive policies and community empowerment resonates deeply within our ongoing initiatives.
Ekmel Ozdemir, who worked alongside Jean as General Manager since the founding of Earth Love United in 2020, serves as interim chairman. Though we mourn the loss of a visionary leader, we are comforted in knowing that Jean’s spirit will live on through the work of the Foundation. Together, we honor his memory by championing worldwide environmental stewardship and sustainable practices.
Jean’s legacy will be embodied by the advancements of the Foundation but also in the hearts of those he inspired to fight against climate change. We extend our deepest condolences to Jean Missinhoun’s family, friends, and all those whose lives he touched.
May your vision guide us toward a future of harmony with our planet’s precious ecosystems and drive us to never stop saving the world.
