In the short video below, filmmaker Dan Nienhuis uses data from Google Insights to analyze how, when, where, and why people think about four common eco-buzzwords—climate change, global warming, carbon footprint, and go green.
“A short documentary using information visualization to look at climate change. Rather than examining the science behind the issue, this piece looks at the popularity of Google searches for environmental keywords.” (vimeo.com/10508779)
What’s your take on Dan’s analysis? Next, in the graphic below, there’s some bonus information about some fairly recent climate anomalies that may have sparked some extra eco-interest, right? Although not in the graphic, the 2010 earthquakes must also be raising climate awareness, wouldn’t you think?
