The Climate Clock Global Initiative is seeking ideas from artist-
led teams to create a major artwork entitled Climate Clock, which
will measure changes in greenhouse gas levels, and be the first in
a series of global projects calling attention to climate change.
Climate Clock will be an instrument of long-term measurement and
will have a sustainable design of 100 years. The artwork will be
located in downtown San Jose, California, Silicon Valley’s city
center, and will be a collaboration between an artist-led team
composed of artists, international and Silicon Valley engineers and
other creative professionals who are working with climate
measurement and data visualization. It is anticipated that the
budget for the construction of Climate Clock will be between $5 and
$15 million, depending upon the scope of the final proposal.
