It introduces powerful new visual tools (from outdoor signs to video-games) for communities, action groups, planners, and other experts to use in engaging the public, building awareness and accelerating action on the world’s greatest crisis.Using dramatic visual imagery such as 3D and 4D visualizations of future landscapes, community mapping, and iconic photographs, this book demonstrates new ways to make carbon and climate change visible where we care the most, in our own backyards and local communities. Extensive color imagery explains how climate change works where we live, and reveals how we often conceal, misinterpret, or overlook the evidence of climate change impacts and our carbon usage that causes them.Carbon dioxide mitigationClimatic changesEnvironmental aspectsSimulation methodsClimatic changesSocial aspectsSimulation methodsClimatologyEnvironmental chemistryEnvironmental healthHealth risk assessmentVisual communicationCarbon dioxide mitigation.Climatic changesEnvironmental aspectsSimulation methods.Climatic changesSocial aspectsSimulation methods.Climatology.Environmental chemistry.Environmental health.Health risk assessment.Visual communication.304.250113363.738/74363.73874Sheppard Stephen Richard John1952-1530470FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910789942703321Visualizing climate change3775540UNINA
