Global Emissions Initiative (GEIA)

The Global Emissions InitiAtive (GEIA), a community effort dedicated to emissions information exchange and competence building, was created in 1990 under the  International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) and is now an  IGAC activity. GEIA maintains an extensive network of emissions experts covering most source types and world regions, builds emissions data access and analysis platforms, and communicates with the emissions community through online resources and in-person meetings. The GEIA web site is the iniative's virtual communications center.
