'Earth's Black Box' installation will record climate change data for future generations, creators say

Steel structure will be 33 feet long

 . . A steel structure known as "Earth’s Black Box" will soon record rising temperature trends as well as other information related to climate change from a remote Australian island. 

The "black box," similar to one on a plane, will document events that can contribute to climate change like pollution and actions by politicians. 

The company’s website says its purpose is to give an "unbiased account of the events that led to the demise of the planet, hold accountability for future generations, and inspire urgent action."

"How the story ends is completely up to us," the website says. . .

LOL  Looks to me like a duplication of effort.   OZ already has this technology in life form.  None other than PT on TBV.  He knows and records everything and it might actually be cheaper to put him on life support if he expires prior to the end of the world.  Well on second thought. Maybe not.  The "Black Box" is programmed to be unbiased.

Naughty Shammy ....    But one must say , the listed predictions of the Climate Change Psychotics over the past 70 years are yet to have one come true .
    Amazing how we humans take as fact anything a News Room cooks up and Rationalise to a point of " Blindness" .
     I see America is pushing the 3rd jab ,    Climate change at work again I expect ,    The fourth Jab in the pipeline.
   Why do we need the 4th Jab if the first 3 work ..... I'm confused.

From the article:

"If civilisation does crash, this box will survive with a completely objective data story," said Jim Curtis, an advertising executive involved in the project,... "but first a foremost, it's a tool."
