CARTOONS: VISUALISING CAUSE AND EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE

Abstract

Climate is one of the crucial parameters that determines the social and economic aspects of a place. It is, therefore, important to be aware of the climatic patterns that help in supporting the growth of the society at large. However, changes in climate are greatly affecting people, animals and places all over the world. It alters weather patterns, transforms landscapes and affects the habitat. It is, therefore, imperative that climate change be discussed, such that the message not only disseminates to the common man but it should intentionally be communicated such that it is well comprehended. Explaining climate change scientifically to get the message across is a challenge. Cartoons help overcome this challenge by visually presenting them, thus helping to convey the serious matter in a lighter, yet information rich in content. Single frame cartoons from leading websites on environment and nature are selected using purposive sampling method. Ecocrtically analysing the cartoons helps better understand the damage caused to nature and the human’s indifference to curtail it. Cartoons mirror how risks are to be understood by humans and how human action adversely affects climate change.Cartoons visually help communicate and understand climate change better
