Summer Heat Full

Caption

A painting by Diane Burko entitled "Summer Heat, 2020" depicts red, orange and blue motifs of wildfires and melting glaciers that overlap with maps that appear to drip over a graph of global atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. Research from the University of Wisconsin–Madison has shown that combining climate data with visually engrossing art can make data more meaningful to viewers and bridge political divides related to climate science.
