- The graphic at the right is a chart & link from 18seconds.org tracking the effect of purchasing and using CFL (compact flourescent) bulbs.
- GapMinder allows you to interactively see the correlation of many factors in all countries of the world. CO2 output versus life expectancy. Income level versus child mortality. And more. Explore how the rest of the world spends, consumes, and lives.
We believe this tool will provide an insight into the larger world. Broadening our understanding of how the rest of the world works, and does not work, will broaden our understanding for the need of sustainable solutions to problems, including energy and CO2 emissions.
While this tool is still in the Beta stage, and is being updated and expanded, we believe it is already worthy of spending time with. When you're done with this tool, let us know how we can help you with our tools for positive climate change, solar electric, hot water, and air heating systems.
