The Path We Follow

The rise of temperature change across Europe using observed data can be visualised in a multitude of ways. However, there is no doubt that we are following a dangerous path.

This installation is in two parts. A mosaic visualises the temperature change across Europe for the past 50 years between 1975-2020; the glass vessels in front of the mosaic represent an assembly of European nations, each displaying their own rise in temperature over 80 years. It is only by taking action now and working together that we can follow a new temperature path to a sustainable future.
