Deutsche Bank Asset Management (DeAM) has been installed in the New York City, from Madison Square Garden, the first counter in real time of carbon at the global level. This is a digital poster of 21 meters high that reflects the number of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, as it picks up the newspaper El Mundo.
Scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of technology will be in charge of calculating emissions by measuring 24 GHG, with the exception of the ozone and aerosols. According to this meter, there are 3640 million metric tons of emissions that increase by two billion tonnes per month.
The measurements are available on the web http://www.know-the-number.com. Updates to data of interest thereon, with downloads, videos, discussion panels and views of the experts participating in the project will be viewed at http://twitter.com/knowthenumber.
