Bloomberg Data Dash:

A Live Climate Scoreboard for the World

Via Bloomberg Green: 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.

Carbon Clock

Scientists have measured the rising level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since the 1950s. The Bloomberg Carbon Clock is a real-time estimate of the monthly CO2 level.

Global Temperature Change

Last year was the second-hottest on record. The five hottest years have all occurred since 2015. Direct monitoring dates back to 1880.

Arctic Sea Ice

The Arctic is heating up much more quickly than the rest of the Earth. Its shrinking ice cap is a consequence of warming — and now an accelerator, too.

Air Pollution

Tiny particles suspended in the air contribute to millions of deaths a year. They also harm the climate. See which cities within sensor range have the unhealthiest air.

Tree Loss

It’s not just the Amazon rainforest. The quest for land and resources is eliminating the world’s greenest places.

Real-Time Power Mix

The electricity mix is changing faster than ever as nations embrace solar, wind, geothermal and even nuclear power.

Not carbon-free: Oil Coal Natural gas Thermal Biomass Waste

Carbon-free: Nuclear Solar Geothermal Wind Hydro
