Introduction
Climate change is one of the most critical global
challenges of our era, with significant
consequences on the environment, economy, and
human society. The rise in global temperatures,
increasing carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions, and
sector-specific greenhouse gas contributions have
accelerated the impact of climate change.
This project leverages Python for analyzing and
visualizing climate-related data to gain insights
into:
1. Trends in global temperature increase over
the years.
2. CO₂ emissions by various countries.
3. Contributions of different sectors to total
greenhouse gas emissions.
By using Python libraries such as Pandas and
atplotlib this project presents findings in a clear
and accessible visual format. Such data-driven
analysis plays a key role in understanding the
extent of climate change and can help inform
global action plans and policy decisions.
Dataset Overview
The dataset contains 15 records and includes
columns for Year, Temperature Increase, CO2
Emissions, and Sector-wise Emissions. Below is
the sample data used in this project.

Python Code
Below is the Python code used for data visualization. It
includes importing libraries, reading the dataset, and
visualizing trends using line, bar, and pie charts.

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# Load Dataset
data = pd.read_csv('climate_data.csv')

# Line Chart: Global Temperature Increase Over Years


plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6))
plt.plot(data['Year'], data['Temperature Increase (°C)'],
marker='o', linestyle='-', color='b')
plt.title('Global Temperature Increase Over Years')
plt.xlabel('Year')
plt.ylabel('Temperature Increase (°C)')
plt.grid(True)
plt.savefig('global_temperature_increase.png') # Save
the plot
plt.show()

# Bar Chart: CO2 Emissions by Country


plt.figure(figsize=(12, 8))
plt.bar(data['Country'], data['CO2 Emissions (Metric
Tons)'], color='green')
plt.title('CO2 Emissions by Country')
plt.xlabel('Country')
plt.ylabel('CO2 Emissions (Metric Tons)')
plt.xticks(rotation=45)
plt.savefig('co2_emissions_by_country.png')
plt.show()

# Pie Chart: Contribution of Different Sectors to


Emissions
sectors = data.groupby('Sector')['Emissions'].sum()
plt.figure(figsize=(8, 8))
plt.pie(sectors, labels=sectors.index, autopct='%1.1f%
%', startangle=140, colors=plt.cm.Paired.colors)
plt.title('Emissions by Sector')
plt.savefig('emissions_by_sector.png')
plt.show()
Output
The visualizations generated include line charts
for temperature trends, bar charts for CO2
emissions by country, and pie charts for sector-
wise emissions contributions. These make it
easier to understand the effects of climate change.
Project Conclusion
This project analyzed the critical indicators of
climate change using Python and publicly
available datasets. Through data visualization, the
following key findings were observed:
Global Temperature Trends:
A clear upward trend in global temperatures over
the years highlights the accelerated warming of
our planet.
CO₂ Emissions by Country:
Developed and rapidly developing countries
account for the majority of CO₂ emissions,
necessitating international collaboration to
mitigate these emissions.
Sector-Wise Contributions:
Sectors like energy, transportation, and industry
are the largest contributors to greenhouse gas
emissions, emphasizing the need for sector-
specific interventions.
This project demonstrates the power of Python for
analyzing climate data and communicating key
findings through visualizations. By making data
more accessible, we hope to contribute to raising
awareness about the urgency of addressing
climate change.
Further work could include predictive modeling
for future temperature and emissions trends or
the development of interactive dashboards for
real-time data exploration.
