Emission scenarios inevitably embed assumptions about fairness. Tracking these assumptions is genuinely difficult, but making them transparent matters. We developed a framework to do just that. @ic-cep.bsky.social #IIASA @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social 1/2

NEW PROJECT! I wasn’t happy with existing weather visualizations and apps so I made mine. Weathersquare is a minimalist, intuitive & contextual weather visualization platform designed to provide hi-res data of past & future conditions at a glance. weathersquare.net #weather #visualization #dataviz

I recently interviewed Deniz for the Friends of the Open Visualization Academy series. We talked about his amazing career and, more specifically, about this project. I'll release the episode a month from now

📊 An impressive data visualization. I have seen similar maps on land use before, but this one stands out by also including overseas land use. The Sankey diagram of footprint vs. intake is also instructive.

Moving away from fossil fuels is in the interest of most countries. Net importers of fossil fuels spent $1.7 trillion on fossil imports in 2024. 3/4 of the global population are importers 40% lives in countries that spend more than 3% of their entire GDP on fossil fuel imports

That's an interesting figure.

At work the question came up of how we ought to label the y-axis of charts that have large values. Especially if we cross orders of magnitude, should the whole axis be labeled in the larger order of magnitude? Which made me wonder how some popular charting libraries handle large numbers by default

I made a tiny tool for quickly sharing small datasets (< ~1000 rows) without uploading any data to a server. 🔗 ziptbl.com It compresses the data into the link itself, so there’s no account, hosting, or storage layer involved. Here's Florence Nightingale's famous 📊 data: ziptbl.com#d=eNpdlE-LGz...

A small update to my long and unjustifiably profane blog post on the rollercoaster that is global temperature and the interpretations of its wrigglin' innards. ENSO is coming diagrammonkey.wordpress.com/2025/07/04/a...

No. In fact there's an article in press in one of the leading journals showing just the opposite, that global temperatures during past few years are entirely consistent with standard model estimates of forced+internal variability. Meanwhile, see: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

As China prepares to release its key plans and targets for the next five years, possibly the biggest question for energy and emissions is a backward-looking one: how much did the country reduce carbon intensity in the past five years - and how much is left to do by 2030?

Sometimes I feel like I’m tilting at windmills when I mention that I find it nearly impossible to download NASA Earth science data, and then I go to the forum for help and see this (my search was for "wget", FWIW).
