The Carbon Economy
EW CE
DS RN
With the ever expanding “on-demand” information and the devices evolving to meet that demand for information and integrating the precedent of the “carbon card” deployed (in research) by London, we expand on that to create a model for the engagement and tracking activities with an embedded synthesis of the economic (debit card) and the ecological (embodied energy factors) “costs” of things. This device, an evolution of smart phone technologies, becomes your “wallet”. Accessed by the user only, through bio-activation, is your ID card, your communications/data accessing device, your credit/debit card, embodied energy measurer, as well as health status (i.e. blood sugar levels, cholesterol, etc.).
