Climate Clock 2.0 Mirror

The Project

“Climate Clock 2.0 Mirror” is a smart mirror and newly customized version of the “Climate Clock”. In addition to the latest information from the “Climate Clock”, energy-related carbon emissions information in the UK and the US from reliable sources are automatically retrieved, calculated and displayed in a mirror to help people including ourselves understand the urgency of climate change and how carbon emissions change in our countries and state where we live. Specifically, time left to limit global warming to 1.5°C and world’s energy from renewables (%) from “Climate Clock”, the UK annual carbon emissions from energy supply and the increase rate from the previous year and similar the US and Massachusetts state’s information are displayed. The mirror is equipped with a motion sensor so that we can save unnecessary energy consumption to display when no one is around the mirror.
