In my thesis I designed a personalized visualization of climate change data in Slovenia, the goal of which is to provoke concern, affect a change in behaviour and adopt climate-positive policies. Climate change will have ever greater consequences on our lives and that is why it is important to understand why these changes are occurring, how they will impact us and how we might mitigate them.
First I studied the field of user communication, psychology, user experience design, user interface design, web design and information design. With the use of principles from these fields I designed a website where the information is presented in a personalized way.
The project addresses two areas of climate change impacts but its design allows for expansion.
