Hi,
While we may not see eye to eye on the reasons behind Climate Change, we all agree that the climate changes. With that in mind, it is important that "we the people" have access to climate data in order to best protect what is ours. It has been a long term dream to develop something like this
Davis Vantage Vue Weather Station that collects, secures and stores all its data locally, is able to collect data from similar stations nearby, while also providing an interface for anyone to collect its data. The key will be that you would have to pay the machine in order to consume its data, which would also mean that the machine would also pay for data it consumes from other nearby machines. Bitcoin allows for such an arrangement.
If you believe this is worth a shot, I would like to work with you to develop such a machine, get it manufactured and given out for free to all and every person that would want to have access to non-politicised weather data. Yes, we can make money giving away the weather station for free.
Kebwesi.
