# Alarming Temperature Visualizations This Chilling NASA Clip Shows 130 Years of Climate Change By Paul Maccarone | Published 2013-08-02 | Updated 2013-08-05 | Social Good Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/years-of-climate-change References: [fastcompany](http://www.fastcompany.com/3015237/fast-feed/nasa-visualizes-130-years-of-climate-change-in-30-seconds) In one of the most alarming videos of the year, [NASA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-eclipse-poster) released a 30 second clip that shows 130 years of [climate change](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ctvc-by-sightline-climate). What's so scary about the video is that it shows that the world is in fact heating up and it has consistently been getting worse since 1880. The range for the video is from 1880 to 2011 and it becomes quite clear that around the 20th century the change rapidly became worse. The idea of [global warming](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zillow-and-first-street) may not be as far fetched as many first thought. With these images it's evident that this is a social issue that people need to pay attention to. If the world continues to heat up, it will drastically affect more than just what people have to wear that day. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 89% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) > [Education](https://www.trendhunter.com/education) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Climate Change Awareness:** Opportunity to create innovative solutions and products that raise public awareness about climate change and the need for action. - **Sustainability Initiatives:** Opportunity for businesses to implement sustainable practices and reduce their carbon footprint. - **Renewable Energy Technologies:** Opportunity to invest in and develop renewable energy technologies to mitigate the impact of climate change. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Environmental Conservation:** Opportunity for organizations to work towards preservation of the environment and develop strategies for climate change mitigation. - **Technology and Innovation:** Opportunity for technological advancements and innovations to address climate change challenges. - **Fashion and Apparel:** Opportunity for the fashion industry to promote sustainable fashion choices and develop climate-friendly materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Immersive Climate Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remembering-the-future.md) - [Pizza-Focused Climate Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-futures.md) - [Endangered Ice Cream Trucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/save-the-flavors.md) - [Faux-Nipple Climate-Awareness Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-nipple-bra.md) - [Climate Change-Informed Cloth Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloth-calendar.md) - [Sea Level-Measuring Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/totemy-series.md) - [Arctic Portal Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arctic-portal.md) - [Climate Change Betting Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/climate-bet.md) - [Climate-Positive Outdoor Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/askov-finlayson-1.md)
