Climate change and global warming is a hot topic and on everyone\u2019s mind these days. Still, communicating the crisis that is upon us is not always easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We strongly believe that telling stories with visuals makes the message easier to understand and act upon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article we provide some visualizations that you can use as an inspiration to tell a more compelling story about the climate yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the graphs we’ll be using were originally created by everviz’s client Norsk klimastiftelse<\/a> (Norwegian Climate Foundation).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Norwegian Climate Foundation is a Norwegian green think tank. They were established in 2010 as a non-commercial foundation working for a society without emissions of man-made greenhouse gases. The Climate Foundation is headquartered in Bergen and works widely in the field of climate and energy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The foundation conducts extensive publicist work, including through the online magazine Energi og Klima, the communication project 2\u00b0 C, by publishing current reports and notes and by inviting knowledge sharing and informed discussion at Klimafrokoster and other events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development of atmospheric carbon dioxide – CO2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CO2 is considered the most important heat-trapping (greenhouse) gas, which is released through human activities such as deforestation and burning fossil fuels, as well as natural processes such as respiration and volcanic eruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is generally accepted that C02 is the largest contributor to man-made global warming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
