So, Fountainhead Park (on the Fairfax side of the Occoquan reservoir, south of Clifton) has high emissions? There are no homes or businesses there.

I do not understand how the values shown in this map were calculated.

It had an interactive key on the NYT that unfortunately didn't translate here. There were 5 categories including transportation contributing to the carbon footprint rating. Colors represent above and below the national average (dark red = bad). Interestingly food was one of the categories and seemed to trend with transportation in north Arlington and McLean (sorry I didn't look elsewhere).
