Following his experience at the COP15 Copenhagen climate conference Elworthy established the Bhuu charitable environmental organisation. The objective is to develop simple devices which transmit environmental measurements to a central database via the internet. The data can then be visualised and analysed and made available to both the original collectors and the general public. The conception is to empower local communities to be able to measure and interpret relevant environmental information.
Elworthy is Director of the European Academy charitable organisation in Schloss Wartin. Along with his colleague Hans-Joachim Mengel, he has restored the manor house in the Uckermark (German) village of Wartin. The Collegium Wartinum Foundation supports the preservation of this manor house and its use as a cultural, artistic, and scientific center in the Uckermark.
