# Carbon Monitor Scraper (`crawlerbros/carbon-monitor-scraper`) Actor Scrape CO2 emissions data from Carbon Monitor - daily emissions by country and sector. Uses the public Carbon Monitor data API. No auth required. - **URL**: https://apify.com/crawlerbros/carbon-monitor-scraper.md - **Developed by:** [Crawler Bros](https://apify.com/crawlerbros) (community) - **Categories:** Automation, Developer tools, Integrations - **Stats:** 2 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $3.00 / 1,000 results This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage. Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Carbon Monitor Scraper Scrape **Carbon Monitor** � CO2 emissions data. --- ### Features - Browse and search Carbon Monitor data - Filter by daily CO2 emissions by country and sector - Output: `date, country, sector, emissionsMtCO2, sourceUrl` - No API key required - Daily test runs for reliability --- ### Input | Parameter | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `mode` | select | What to fetch | | `maxItems` | integer | Maximum records to return (default: 50) | **Example input:** ```json { "mode": "globalEmissions", "maxItems": 10 } ```` *** ### Output Each record contains: `date, country, sector, emissionsMtCO2, sourceUrl` **Example record:** ```json { "recordType": "record", "scrapedAt": "2024-01-15T10:30:00+00:00" } ``` *** ### FAQ **Is this free to use?** Yes � this actor uses only public APIs and requires no authentication. **How often is data updated?** Data is fetched live on every run from Carbon Monitor. **What is the daily test run?** This actor runs automatically every day to verify it still works correctly. *** ### Data Source Data is sourced from **Carbon Monitor** public API/website. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): Select what data to fetch. ## `country` (type: `string`): Country store code (e.g. US). ## `sector` (type: `string`): Emission sector to filter by. ## `startDate` (type: `string`): Start date for data range (YYYY-MM-DD). ## `endDate` (type: `string`): End date for data range (YYYY-MM-DD). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of records to return. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "globalEmissions", "country": "USA", "startDate": "2023-01-01", "endDate": "2023-01-31", "maxItems": 50 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `records` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "mode": "globalEmissions", "country": "USA", "startDate": "2023-01-01", "endDate": "2023-01-31", "maxItems": 50 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("crawlerbros/carbon-monitor-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
