Alarming Numbers of Climate
Description
The Tableau dashboard, crafted with precision in Figma, unveils a visual narrative of significant environmental challenges. Each of the four distinct charts encapsulates a unique environmental issue, rendered with clarity and aesthetic grace to offer an engaging user experience. The first chart, a meticulously plotted line graph, reveals the alarming rate at which ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are melting. The lines, distinct and clear, offer a visual journey through years of data, making the impact of climate change both visible and palpable.
The narrative progresses with the second chart, a bar graph that brings to light the constant reduction in Brazil’s forest land area. Each bar, marked by a year, tells a story of the relentless march of deforestation. The third chart shifts the geographical focus to the USA, where a line graph illustrates the increasing frequency and severity of wildfires, with each line offering insights into the acres burned and the number of fires. These visual representations, though distinct, weave a connected story of environmental distress.
The fourth chart, a scatterplot, adds another layer to this narrative by correlating the rise in atmospheric CO2 levels with temperature anomalies. Each dot, representing a specific year, is a confluence of data on CO2 levels and temperature changes, offering insights into the intricate dance between these two variables. The dashboard, designed in Figma, marries data accuracy with visual elegance, turning complex datasets into a compelling, interactive narrative that invites exploration, understanding, and action on the pressing environmental issues of our time.
