Abstract

Global Warming is the gradational increase in the average face temperature of the Earth. The Climate Clock uses an LED matrix display to show the time left before the Earth reaches a certain global warming temperature. The remaining time is determined by two factors the carbon budget needed to reach a given global warming temperature and the current rate of CO2 emigration. The budget for limiting global warming to1.5 degrees is 280 billion tons, while the current periodic rate of CO2 emigration is roughly 43 billion tons. Dividing the first number by the alternate number gives us the time left until we reach1.5 degrees of global warming. The time left is around5.6 times, which is dwindling every second. The Climate timepiece displays this preamble.
