Applying social learning to climate communications- visualising 'people like me' in air pollution and climate change data (2021)
Journal Article

Technological approaches to carbon emission and air pollution data modelling consider where the issues are located and what is creating emissions. This paper argues that more focus should be paid to people-the drivers of vehicles or households burnin...
