Speaker: Norhan Magdy Bayomi (MIT)

This talk presents a data-driven framework developed by the MIT Climate Machine Research Group to quantify the carbon footprint of live music across the US and the UK, breaking down emissions by fan travel, touring logistics, power generation, and venue operations. Norhan is Co-Founder and Co-Director of the MIT Climate Machine with Prof. John E. Fernandez, and the lead researcher on this project, where she developed the underlying bottom-up computational and mathematical methodology for modeling and comparing live-music emissions across the US and the UK.
