The shocking warming stripes which show extent of climate change in Greater Manchester we can't ignore
Worrying new data has revealed the extent of climate change in Greater Manchester over the years, as experts warned urgent action is required to tackle the crisis.
The stripes were created by Professor Ed Hawkins in partnership with UK charity Carbon Copy - using data from the Met Office. The controversial clean air zone, which is still yet to be formalised, also falls under the plan. It comes after shocking data in 2020 revealed that air pollution was linked to one in 23 deaths in Greater Manchester.
People in Greater Manchester are now able to download their stripes, as well as finding out more about carbon emissions and climate action plans in their local area.
