What’s climate change really going to be like?
Human measurements don’t truly quantify the damage we’re causing. Climate change is leading to scary runaway consequences. Wildfires in Greece this year burned 12 times as much land than average. More fires will lead to more carbon emissions and climate warming in a positive loop.
This app simulates how natural wildfires burn and spread through forests. Complete the picture with human intervention via your mouse. Upload your canvas to the gallery when you're done. The gallery on the laptop screen compares a set of naturally generated forest fires on the left with a data set of human exacerbated fires on the right contributed by yourself.
