How will we measure and track the reduction of greenhouse emissions in the atmosphere, and how will we monitor the switch of our grid from coal to green energy effectively? We turned to the founder of Green Econometrics, Michael Davies, to get insight into how IoT sensors can help achieve sustainability goals for the US, as well as support general health and safety.
