IEA’s expertise is behind Show Your Stripes climate data visualisation website

Data analysts and software developers at the Institute for Environmental Analytics have been working with Climate Science Professor Ed Hawkins to enable people around the world to download his striking climate stripes for their location.

ShowYourStripes.info has been launched today – June 21st, summer solstice – as part of an international campaign to highlight the importance of climate science. The pattern of blue and red stripes shows how average temperatures have risen based on climate data from the mid-19th century in their country or US state.

Prof Hawkins, from University of Reading’s Meteorology department, said: “We’re asking everyone to show their stripes and raise awareness of the damaging impacts of climate change and support climate scientists worldwide who are helping to fight it.
