The Finnish newspaper has developed a font that visualizes climate change
The Helsingin Sanomat Finnish newspaper has developed a font that visualizes the effects of climate change caused by human activity. Instead of using variable fonts to install different scales in one font file, the newspaper's management command used this technology to "melt" the font.
- 📌 A variable font technique is used to illustrate climate change.
- 📌 The font reflects the decrease in the volume of Arctic sea ice since 1979.
- 📌 The font data is taken with NSIDC and IPCC.
- 📌 The font is available for free download.
🧩 Summary: Developers hope that using this font will help people see the urgency of climate change in a more tangible form. This is a call for action.
🧠 Own considerations: This is an interesting way to use design to raise awareness of global problems such as climate change. Although the font itself is not a solution to the problem, it can serve as a powerful tool in creating a visual message about the importance of actions in response to this crisis.
