Summary

The author is frustrated with the lack of understanding about climate change and its impact, despite being bombarded with information. They wanted to find a way to easily understand and visualize the numbers involved in carbon emissions, but struggled with traditional database systems like SQL and Excel. The author discovered Neo4j, a graph database, which provided a flexible structure for connecting and aggregating data. However, they still needed a user-friendly interface, which is where Structr comes in - an application framework for Neo4j that simplifies the development process and allows non-technical users to focus on the business logic. With Structr, the author was able to create a system that captures various units of measure combinations, aggregates data mathematically, and presents numbers in a user-friendly way, ultimately saving time and money while minimizing risks.
