COP26: The tech helping you to help the planet
New technology that could lead to better informed choices on climate change.
Climate change is set to alter our planet and human beings need to change the way we live and work. But how do we know exactly what changes to make?
New technology could help us make informed choices - from sensors counting pollinating insects in fields, to power sockets that tell us how green our energy is, to apps that enable communities to discuss change in their local area.
These ideas are part of the Tech for Our Planet challenge, which is being run by the UK government as part of the COP26 summit. We check out the three projects and explore how new technology has the potential to change our behaviour.
Produced and presented by William Kremer from COP26.
