Why and Where We Need to Change is an augmented data visualisation that quantifies, and makes visually tangible, ongoing development and environmental stresses in London. The visualisation makes use of open data to display a combination of pressing social factors, environmental stresses and climate threats, ultimately showing how they correlate and cascade; demonstrating that climate justice is social justice for many of London’s deprived and impacted communities.

Through the use of social media augmented reality filters, this allows viewers (Londoners) to investigate their local and familiar context through new perspectives; hopefully raising questions about urban development practices and its consequential effects. Please scan QR code to see AR features.
