More greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere means higher temperatures on Earth. In response, frozen surfaces melt and bodies of water expand, potentially threatening the lives of coastal inhabitants. Based on a study from Kulp & Strauss (2019), the visuals below show the number of people at coastal flood risk per country today (plain color); in 2100 under a moderate GHG emissions scenario (dots); in 2100 and a scenario with high emissions resulting in the melting of antarctic ice (white).

Wet Feet ○ Data Visualization

"Wet Feet" illustrates how many people, per country, are at coastal flood risk today, and how many will be in 2100 under two greenhouse gas emission scenarios. In this project, I used R code to generate graphs from raw data, Illustrator to refine the layout, and Photoshop for textures and adjustments.
