Eurostat’s climate visualisations: A new way into environmental insights
Explore interactive data tools that illuminate Europe’s climate challenges
The European Commission's Eurostat has published a series of climate visualisations that offer a comprehensive look at the continent's environmental data. These visualisations cover a wide range of topics, from greenhouse gas emissions to energy flows, providing valuable insights into the drivers and impacts of climate change. By presenting complex data in an accessible format, Eurostat aims to enhance public understanding and engagement with climate issues.
One of the standout features is the Environmental Accounts Dashboard, which allows users to explore various indicators related to environmental protection, resource productivity, and greenhouse gas footprints. This interactive tool enables comparisons between countries, helping policymakers and citizens alike to track progress and identify areas for improvement. The visualisations are designed to be user-friendly, making it easy for anyone to delve into the data and draw meaningful conclusions. For example, the first graph shows a sharp decline in greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union.
These visualisations are part of a broader effort to promote open data and transparency. By making this information readily available, Eurostat supports the goals of the data.europa.eu portal, which serves as a central hub for European open data. We encourage the use of data to drive innovation, improve public services, and foster collaboration across borders. The climate visualisations exemplify how open data can be leveraged to address pressing global challenges.
Discover these visualisations and more on the Eurostat website and the data.europa.eu platform. They offer various sources of information that can inspire action and inform decision-making at all levels.
