There has also been a stark loss of wildlife since 1970 yet climate change receives far greater attention. The ‘warming stripes’ have shown how simple graphics can engage broad audiences. The ‘nature stripes’ show how the loss of wildlife and biodiversity can also be presented in a similar way to positive effect.

Complex issues of climate breakdown and biodiversity loss require innovative, research-informed solutions. These solutions must incorporate diverse perspectives and engage wider audiences in the environmental geosciences. Art-geoscience partnerships may help to achieve this by providing accessible opportunities for knowledge sharing. We explore opportunities to enhance inclusive engagement of environmental geoscience research through art-science partnerships and provide experience-based advice.
