A team of scientists and designers teamed up to create a tool that would show Australians what the climate is expected to be like in their cities in the year 2050 — and it led to a startling discovery.⁠ "In 30 years, winter as we know it will be non-existent," researcher Geoff Hinchliffe said in a 2019 press release — revealing yet another way climate change is poised to dramatically alter life on Earth.⁠ ⁠ _____⁠ ⁠ The team, comprising designers from the Australian National University's (ANU) School of Art and Design and the ANU Climate Change Institute, relied on data from the Bureau of Meteorology and Scientific Information for Land Owners for their project. Once it had compiled the data, the ANU team sought a way to present it that would most resonate with the public.⁠ "That meant using color, shape, and size around a dial composition showing a whole year's worth of temperature values in a single snapshot," Hinchliffe said. "It makes it visually rich and interesting and gives a lot...
