Businesses all over the world are jumping onto the eco-friendly bandwagon in light of all the recent global warming news, but those still relying on old, polluting technology have been put in the spotlight in a new database.

The Center for Global Development (CGD) in Washington, D.C. recently launched CARMA, the Carbon Monitoring for Action database. It sounds dry, but one of the best parts about this extensive source of emissions information is the way the CGD compiled it into an easy-to-use interactive website at www.carma.org.

CARMA contains lists of carbon emissions numbers for power plants and companies all over the world, so you can discover who's running the dirtiest facilities and doing the most global warming damage in your part of the globe. Plus, CARMA keeps tracks of which countries produce the most greenhouse gases, too.

This is not your typical dry website of scientific information and technical terms. You can search by country, state, province, county, metro area, city, company or plant, or zip code. You can even locate top C02 producers on a map, and you can view the map in regular or satellite format. Make sure you check out the blog below the map and search box for even more information about CARMA and greenhouse gas emissions.

So who’s polluting the worst? A quick search reveals the following:

U.S. Power Plants with Highest CO2 Emissions

Scherer Power Plant in Juliette, Georgia
--Releases over 25 million tons of CO2 each year

Miller Power Plant in Quinton, Alabama
--Releases over 20 million tons of C02 each year

I didn't discover this on CARMA, but an interesting bit of trivial for you is that these two worst plants in America both have the parent Southern Company, based in Atlanta.

Country with Highest C02 Emitting Plants

United States
--Almost 2.8 billion tons of CO2 each year
