Errors while installing Bower

I am trying to install Bower with my Mac, and I typed the following command on the terminal:

npm install -g bower

It says on the webpage (bower.io) that Bower requires Node and npm and Git, and I already have all of them installed, so there should be no problem, but unfortunately the result is as follows:

npm ERR! Error: EACCES, unlink '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/bower'

npm ERR! { [Error: EACCES, unlink '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/bower']

npm ERR! errno: 3,

npm ERR! code: 'EACCES',

npm ERR! path: '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/bower' }

npm ERR!
