Our World in Data’s mission is to publish the research and data to make progress against the world’s largest problems. Founded by Max Roser and Hannah Ritchie, this team believes research and data are crucial to building a better future. This applies to poverty, disease, hunger, climate change, war, existential risks, and inequality, the many other great and terrifying problems we face. Our World in Data focuses on using the data developed by thousands of researchers around the world who dedicate their lives to it, proper use of data can provide a good understanding of how to make progress against these large problems. The world has the resources to do much better and reduce suffering, should it choose to use it. However, a key reason why we fail to achieve the progress we are capable of is that we do not make enough use of this existing research and data: the important knowledge is often stored in inaccessible databases, locked away behind paywalls, and buried under jargon in academic papers. Our World in Data seeks to make this data more accessible.

EPA's Carbon Footprint Calculator estimates an typical U.S. resident's footprint in three areas: home energy, transportation and waste. Everyone's carbon footprint is different depending on their location, habits, and personal choices. You can get a quick, rough estimate of your carbon footprint by using U.S. average values. They are provided (along with other useful information) in the "tool tips" throughout the calculator.

Jeff Desjardins of the Visual Capital, along with a number of associates, both create and curate enriched visual content focused on emerging trends in business and investing.  They take a look at a wide array of infographics and data visualizations that enhance our understanding of the data that provide clues to trends, rates of growth or decline, and changes in prices to increase understanding of investing and company value.

Tableau is a software service that enables gorgeous visualizatios of data.  Tableau Public allows you to search for visualizations relating to topics of interest, including energy, nuclear energy and carbon emissions. Try it and consider creating your own visualization.

The UNECE's report,Life Cycle Assessment of Electricity Generation Options, published in October 29, 2021 and updated May 4, 2022, contains more than fifty figures detailing the life cycle findings relating to the impacts of various types of electricity generation. On nearly every dimension, we can see the high generation and  low ecologic impact of nuclear, especially relative to other types of energy. This data provides support for the unique value of low-carbon nuclear energy to global decarbonization.

The International Energy Agency (IEA), led by Fatih Birol, works with governments and industry to shape a secure and sustainable energy future for all by providing authoritative analysis, data, policy recommendations, and real-world solutions to help countries provide secure and sustainable energy for all. Created in 1974 to help co-ordinate a collective response to major disruptions in the supply of oil, the IEA has evolved and expanded significantly since its foundation and takes an "all-fuels, all-technology" approach, recommending policies that enhance the reliability, affordability and sustainability of energy.

The Electricity Map, developed and maintained by Tomorrow, a small Danish/French team, allows you to explore the climate impact of electricity for many countries globally. It depicts the carbon intensity of the energy usage in a particular area on a real-time basis. All greenhouse gas emissions (both CO2 and other greenhouse gases such as methane) that have gone into producing the electricity which is being consumed in an area (including electricity imported from other areas but used within a different region).

John Muyskens, Dan Keating and Samuel Granados created one of the most fascinating and informative, if older, data visualization series about how the U.S. generates its electricity for the Washington Post.
