Scientists to NASA: We Need A Reliable Way to Track Global Emissions — WSJ
Forget all the haggling with China, India, and parts of the U.S. Congress-the real obstacle to a global climate-change treaty might be accurately measuring greenhouse-gas emissions in the first place.

Without a sophisticated satellite that can track global emissions, it will be hard to know what everybody is really up to: “[C]urrent methods for estimating greenhouse gas emissions have limitations for monitoring a climate treaty.”
