The climate emergency is heavy... but the way it’s presented doesn’t have to be

As David Attenborough said, “addressing the climate emergency is no longer just a scientific or technical problem, but a communications challenge.” Knowing how hard it is to get people to actually read reports, or stay engaged in the science long enough to hear how to take action, I turn the words of researchers, campaigners and scientists into illustrated visual summaries that are not just easy to digest, but joyful.

I firmly believe that if we’re going to turn the tide and stand a chance at net zero, we need to go beyond engaging audiences, and spark hope and excitement for that future. Illustrated visual summaries are a powerful tool in that strategy, and this belief is the core of everything I do.

I’ve watched an audience’s attention drift as a panel discusses the complexities of our current economic models, and seen it snap back when the information appears in illustrated form on a large screen. I’ve also been in the room for keynotes where speakers spark mindset shifts, and captured the visual memento that guests hold onto for years to come.

If you have a report and want to get more eyes on the key findings, or have a climate event coming up and want to make sure the message lasts, get in touch — I’m good at this stuff!

Kind words from climate clients

  • Many people can draw or create graphics. Not everyone can be sensitive to a room, a good listener, able to discern. You have a gift for it.

    Laura Cook, Senior Strategist with Project Dandelion

  • Ellie intuitively understood how to animate & weave together complex concepts in a way that felt accessible, beautiful and coherent. It was so useful in clarifying some of the major themes that came out of our day.

    Ally Kingston, Creative Lead at Purpose Disruptors

What next?

I’d love to hear more about your event.

You can use the below scheduler to put a 15 minute intro call into our diaries.

I’ll ask you some questions, make some suggestions, and if you, like, work out a bespoke quote for your event. I’m also happy to make connections and learn more about what you do.

I look forward to meeting you.
