1) The conference logo was designed by Dr Anna Lombardi @annalombardi.bsky.social, Climate Data Visualiser at the Copernicus Climate Change Service (Copernicus ECMWF @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social ). Her aim: to create an image that sparks curiosity and gently invites people in.

Bringing science, media, design and art together, for climate crisis awareness:

Estoy muy emocionado de ser parte de esto! 📊 #VisualisingClimate2026

I am thrilled to co‑organise Visualising Climate with colleagues from Copernicus/ECMWF, BSC, BC3 and the University of Miami—the first global conference at the intersection of climate change and data visualisation, at a moment when clear, actionable communication is essential. #dataviz #datavis

I'm so be happy to be part of the organizing committee of this conference. Join us in Bologna! #dataViz #infographics #dataVisualization #dataJournalism You can submit a proposal for a talk, paper, workshop, etc: visualisingclimate.com/submissions/

Join us in Bologna, Italy, 4–6 Nov 2026 for Visualising Climate — the first global conference fully dedicated to climate data visualization and its power to transform public understanding of a changing planet. Come see the data. visualisingclimate.org #VisualisingClimate2026 #DataVis #ClimateCrisis

It's official 🎉 Visualising Climate 2026 is here! visualisingclimate.com First international conference of its kind, it'll bring together artists, scientists, journalists all moved by the same desire to better communicate our changing climate 🌍 🗓️ Join us in Bologna, Nov 4-6 #dataviz #climatecrisis

📊

This will be an excellent conference for anyone interested in climate data and data visualisation.

We are organising a conference! visualisingclimate.com

Back from an inspiring week @dagstuhl.de 🏰 castle. 🙏 We explored many aspects of the 🧠 psychology of 📊📈 (climate) visualizations. I enjoyed fun conversations 💬 with @thoughtafox.bsky.social @drpi.bsky.social @windhagr.bsky.social and many other castle dwellers. 😃 See www.linkedin.com/posts/yurien...

Never forget: At breakneck speed we are leaving the stable Holocene climate in which human society developed and thrived. Weather extremes are outside historical experience. Sea-level rise is accelerating. Dangerous tipping points are ahead. Graph: ed-hawkins.github.io/climate-visu...

How can relationships between different types of visualization be represented visually? How can we visualize the information visualization ‘design space’? This is Bryan Chen's Master thesis project – you can help by exploring the visuals & answering the questions at: forms.fillout.com/t/sYLcKghThrus

An alternative to plotting time: instead, use the horizontal axis to plot a second variable, and animate the chart to show changes over time (also used by the great Hans Rosling)

The European State of the Climate 2024 report is OUT! A joint effort by @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social & @wmo-global.bsky.social Read it & explore all additional resources which include a Graphics gallery, infographics, animations!

Hello, Bluesky! 👋 I'm an HCI & data visualization researcher, currently exploring AI-driven climate communication. Looking to connect with folks in #HCI, #DataViz, #ClimateChange, and #Academia. Who else is here?

Join us online on Thu 20 March 18:00–19:00 CET: *Visualising climate science* by Angela Morelli Visualisation is a powerful tool for navigating the complexity of climate change. However, visualising climate science can confuse, misinform or polarise. Register at: www.eventbrite.at/e/iiid-conve...

Dishonest charts are coming from all directions, and they're only going to hit harder. Unless we push back. So, an interactive guide: Defense Against Dishonest Charts flowingdata.com/projects/dis...

“Never before has the danger of climate change been so evident and the response so cavalier.”

The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the CO₂ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii. @noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!

The Dutch @knmi.bsky.social Institute has just published ‘De Staat van het Klimaat 2024’, showing worrisome climate-related developments in very good visualizations. You can flip through (and download) the full report here: cdn.knmi.nl/system/data_... @maartenvanaalst.bsky.social @fruys.bsky.social

Bedankt 🇳🇱!

Remarkable chart by @data.ft.com Many readers won't fully understand boxplots. At a quick glance, they don't add much information here. But then, look at the lower end of the 2024 whisker (or 2015 for the previous El Niño)! Also: I just love the aesthetic 🤩 #dataviz www.ft.com/content/fd91...

To visualize daily temperature anomalies since 1940, BBC News uses a ridgeline chart (yes, the Joy Division kind): www.bbc.com/news/article...

Five years ago today (in 2019), I posted my New Year's resolution for 2020 📊, and it now seems more urgent than ever ... 🤔 www.linkedin.com/pulse/climat...

The annual climate cycle presents a good opportunity to use a radial or polar chart, allowing us to visualize seasonal patterns. It's super interesting to see the geophysical differences between climate zones in the US. #rstats #dataviz 📖 dominicroye.github.io/en/2021/clim...

It's been a while since the Data Vis Dispatch devoted some time to climate visualizations, so here we go: from AI emissions to snowfall to floods to climate conference attendees: Find more topics here: https://blog.datawrapper.de/data-vis-dispatch-november-19-2024/

Ok, time seems appropriate for a proper (re)introduction. Last week, I joined the Development Data Group of the World Bank as a data visualization consultant. I'll be mainly working on the next edition of the Sustainable Development Goals Atlas (2023 edition here: datatopics.worldbank.org/sdgatlas)

The majority of CO₂ emissions were emitted relatively recently. Our new interactive tool shows how much has been added in your lifetime alone. www.zeit.de/wissen/umwel...

We use 30 year averages to show climatology (average weather conditions). During the 20th century the UK climatology followed a path around a confined box. With #globalwarming and #climatechange they have escaped out the box. This #dataviz shows UK rainfall and temperature.
