>Nobody in their right mind would even suggest automatically fining countries or cities based on the colour of pixels on a satellite CO₂ map. Didn't say they would, and the point I was making was how a location can go over those limits due to external factors outside their control. Which may well be just above normal in themselves, yet combined with another producing area which in itself would be normal, combined - tip the balance. Sure if you have a clear cut case, I'd expect due process, but when the lines are literally blurred, you get a different picture. Sure sats do give a nice simple big picture, but currently just 2D snapshots of many layers of 3D space. That may well change over time.
