In 2018, a professor from the UK, Ed Hawkins developed, at at first glance, an unusual but understandable color scheme, which displays climate change in Canada, the USA and England starting at 19 century to our time. This idea has become very popular. Meteorologists who are aware of the changes have begun to wear ties with this pattern, thereby paying attention public to the problem of global warming.
In 2019, the scientist created a website where you can consider in detail, how the temperature in his country changed between 1850 – 2019. On the Based on databases of various meteorological organizations on the website information on temperature changes is collected and analyzed on The earth.
How the average temperature rises in all countries of the world can be seen from color transitions from blue to red and burgundy. Dark lines show temperature values that turned out to be below normal over the past hundred years, and dark red – temperature values that are higher than normal.
The uniqueness of the climate in each country does not matter, since an increase in temperature is observed in all regions equally.

In 2017, Hawkins created a spiral animation on which displayed climate change on Earth. Drawing very soon gained recognition, and the Washington Post called this chart the most compelling chart showing global changes on the planet.
In the new infogram, according to the scientist, there are no distractions, which are usually present on charts. On it in a compressed form long-term trends with all temperature changes on Earth.
On his page on Twitter, the scientist calls on everyone use these graphs and bring them to others, which will allow the public understand more about the problem of global warming.
One of the readers was so impressed with the scientist’s schedule that applied this drawing to Tesla’s own electric vehicle. And one the page reader used the drawing to create dresses.
