Visualizing Climate
Inequality






No country will be immune to the impacts of climate change. However, the distribution of impacts is unequal and tilted against the Global South, where countries not only face the most geographical burden, but also bear the least faculty to cope. By mapping key correlations between carbon emissions, environmental vulnerability, and capital, these data visualizations begin to map the root inequality of the climate crisis.
