Highest Polluters in California: Using free GIS tool Map Builder
The Center for Investigative Reporting has release a map of California’s top polluters. This was built with Map Builders, a free GIS mapping tool. I’m excited to give this tool a try!
The top 100 carbon dioxide-producing facilities in California generated 101,890,944 metric tons of CO2 in 2007, according to data recently released by the California Air Resources Board. We’ve mapped that data to show where the 100 largest polluters are located. Power plants and oil refineries appear to be the largest culprits. The data is self-reported to the air resources board.

I am such a messy messy pho eater that I definitely need Bib Technology to keep me clean - but I think messiness means that you did a good job digging into your pho! adriene took this photo of me while I was eating pho.
It is very important to wear proper eating technology devices, such as paper napkins to cover your lavender silk dress from the excited splashes created by PHO eating. If not you could possibly leave with a shirt that says more about your PHO than it does about your eating practices!
