This visualization illustrates the rise in global temperatures from 1880 through the end of 2013. NASA scientists report that 2013 tied for the seventh warmest year since 1880, continuing a significant long-term warming trend. Notably, with the exception of 1998, the ten warmest years on record have all occurred since 2000, with 2010 and 2005 ranking as the hottest.

The visualization displays a running five-year average global temperature, compared to a 1951-1980 baseline. A color-coded map shows surface temperature anomalies, with red indicating higher and blue indicating lower than normal temperatures. Credits include Animator Lori Perkins, Producer Leslie McCarthy, and Scientists James Hansen Ph.D. and Patrick Lynch.

Free online data, including satellite, sensor, and climate models, empowers individuals to understand and address air pollution and climate change. These petabytes of resources offer immense value in devising solutions to critical environmental issues.

James Poetzscher, a 17-year-old high school student, exemplifies this. He has authored four research papers, mapped global air pollution decline for the European Environmental Bureau (published by BBC, Reuters), and created a global map inventory on his website greeenhousemaps.com. He also built an air quality data portal and writes for major media. James aims to inspire young people to take collective action on these century-defining issues.

James founded "Phone credit for refugees and displaced people" after an eye-opening trip to Calais. What began as a Facebook group evolved into an organization providing vital phone credit to displaced adults and children worldwide. This initiative offers the gift of communication to those separated from family and friends, far from home, and in uncertain circumstances.

The organization has supplied over £700,000 worth of phone credit, enabling people to contact loved ones, stay updated with news, and summon emergency, life-saving assistance. With over 70,000 Facebook followers, their impact is significant. James's talk explores the boundaries of compassion and responsibility, defining community, and how he found a creative solution.
