YNTR: Bloomberg Data Dash: a Live Climate Scoreboard for the World

You Need to Read Bloomberg Green’s Data Dash: A Live Climate Scoreboard for the World by Eric Roston, Mira Rojanasakul, Paul Murray, Brittany Harris, Demetrios Pogkas and Andre Tartar

Want to know the exact CO2ppm in the atmosphere, what city is most polluted, how far global average temperatures have risen or how many thousands of soccer pitches of forest we lose every hour? Bloomberg Green has got you covered. What about some better news? It’s pretty hard to whine that we can’t break our fossil fuel addiction when you’re reminded that Brazil’s power generation is already around 85% renewables and that renewable power investment worldwide is nearly $82 billion as of this writing. Click around and you can see which countries are way ahead on renewables and how your country stacks up.

These are the numbers that matter. A difficult global transition is happening right now, away from fossil fuels, deforestation, greenhouse-gas pollution and melting ice. It can be measured with precision and clarity. The processes described by this data dashboard are occurring on a planetary scale, and yet our progress can be measured this minute, in parts per million, in metric tons, in fractions of a degree. This is Bloomberg Green’s guide to the worldwide goal of slowing and stopping warming temperatures. This is a record of how far we have to go, and a tool to assess how much we can change.
