Between 2019–2022, more than 20 million displacements were recorded globally each year due to climate-driven events. High-income countries with the largest greenhouse gas emissions typically face fewer immediate impacts from climate change due to their geographical locations, advanced infrastructure, and greater resources for mitigation and adaptation. By contrast, low-income countries, which contribute the least to global carbon emissions, are disproportionately affected by the adverse effects of climate change. These nations often have higher population densities and fewer resources to cope with climate-driven disasters such as extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and prolonged droughts. As a result, they experience more severe disruptions to their economies, public health, food security, agricultural growth, and livelihoods. 🔗 Find out more about Arctrn’s exploration of this issue at https://lnkd.in/euFxX4d5 A special thank you to Jasmine Tidd for her work on this project ✨ Pivot Design Group #dataviz #datavisualization #climatemigration

Translating data into meaningful, actionable stories.
About us
ARCTRN Group applies a user-centred approach to the process of uncovering the human stories and actionable insights inherent in data, so that we may expand our relationship with information, our understanding and experience of it — informing business and inspiring change in everyday life. We create a connection between people and data. Leveraging the emerging discipline of data visualization, we harness data — previously available only in tabular reports or overly simplified charts — to empower participation in, and the understanding of, that data. This is encouraging a shift toward analytically driven businesses, where users can explore data in various forms of graphical representation revealing insights and delivering greater understanding.

Canada’s changing climate is causing deep and lasting impacts on our society, economy, and environment. Environmental changes directly impact those living in hazardous regions such as low-lying coastlines and wildfire risk zones, as well as populations with limited resources or unstable infrastructure. These populations tend to migrate to inland and urban areas with more resilient infrastructure capable of withstanding climate-driven disasters. This in turn causes rapid population growth and increased population density in these areas, introducing added challenges such as reduced resources and housing affordability. Migration challenges posed by climate change will disproportionately affect our Indigenous communities, who will face scarce food supplies and poor nutrition, habitat loss, and extreme weather conditions as climate-driven disasters become more severe and frequent. 🔗 Find out more about Arctrn’s exploration of this issue at https://lnkd.in/euFxX4d5 Pivot Design Group #climatemigration #datavisualization #dataviz

Climate migration involves permanent relocation of individuals, either within their own country or internationally, as a result of environmental disasters driven by climate change. Intense droughts and water scarcity, severe fires and extreme heat, rising sea levels and flooding are among the leading factors of climate migration. Over 3.3 billion people live in areas vulnerable to climate-driven disasters. The effects of climate change will increase rapidly in the future— impacting more people, and at a more severe level. The World Bank estimates that by 2050, 216 million people could be displaced within their own countries due to climate change. 🔗 Find out more about ARCTRN's exploration of this issue: https://lnkd.in/euFxX4d5 Have you or anyone you know experienced displacement due to extreme weather events?
