Climate Clock

The Climate Clock project emphasizes the urgent need to limit global warming to 1.5°C by showcasing a countdown timer that tracks the time left to achieve zero emissions. It encourages global participation in erecting climate clocks in various cities to raise awareness and promote immediate action against climate change. The initiative highlights the critical seven-year window for transformative changes to avert severe climate impacts and calls for public engagement to ensure a sustainable future.

The Climate Clock melds art, science,


technology, and grassroots organizing
to get the world to #ActInTime.

The project is centered on a simple tool:


a clock that counts down the critical
time window to reach zero emissions
(our “Deadline”), while tracking our
progress on key solution pathways
(“Lifelines”).

By showing us what we need to do by


when, the Clock frames our critical
mission — a rapid and just transition to a
safe climate future — and puts it at the
very forefront of our attention.

Since its famous launch in New York in


September 2020, Climate Clock teams
have sprung up across the world from
Chiapas to Kazakhstan, from Korea to
Glasgow. Join in.

The first time I


saw the Climate
Clock, it woke
something up
inside me — and
that’s after 30
years of being in
this movement.

Climate Clock Global
Ambassador

KNOW THE NUMBERS


We are in a Climate Emergency, but there
is still time to avert disaster if we take bold,
immediate action at the speed and scale
necessary – beyond what politicians have
deemed politically possible. The next ~7
years is humanity’s best window to enact
bold, transformational changes in our
global economy to avoid raising global
temperature above 1.5ºC, a point of no
return that science tells us is likely to make
the worst climate impacts inevitable.

The Deadline and Lifeline on the Climate


Clock tell us what we need to do, by when.
They are arguably the most important
numbers in the world. It’s worth
understanding why.

SEE THE SCIENCE

INSTALL IN EVERY CITY


We offer the #ClimateClock to the
worldwide climate movement as an
internationally coordinated, participatory
project.* We encourage you to erect an
iconic climate clock in your own locale —
joining Berlin, New York, Seoul, Rome and
Glasgow. These climate clocks are drawing
the world’s attention to the urgency for
action. But if our species is to survive, we
need a constant, public reminder of our
climate Deadline (and solution Lifelines) —
everywhere!

gov’t, or major University,

PUT A CLOCK UP IN YOUR CITY

GET YOUR OWN CLOCK


Action Clocks are perfect for schools,
universities and offices. This clock is
portable and built for action. Want to have
one in your classroom? Want to put it on
the desk of your favorite climate-
champion? Know a climate denier who
needs to get "clocked"? This is the clock
for you.

There is also a DIY "maker kit" version of


the clock available to classrooms and
hobbyists on an open-source basis.
