Carbon Removal Illustrations
Hand-Drawn Illustrations | Communication Design | Copywriting | Climate Advocacy | CO2 Removal
Tools: Pen | Paper | Markers
Through a series of hand-drawn illustrations, I explore the transformative power of environmental solutions and climate action. These works are more than just visual representations; they are a testament to the urgent need for change. With a passion for design and a commitment to sustainability, I aim to communicate complex ideas and inspire positive action through art. Each piece reflects the beauty of our natural world and the hope for a greener future, making it a visual journey towards a more sustainable tomorrow.
These illustrations for various carbon removal solutions have been used to raise awareness and garner attention for companies, non-profits, NGOs, and Universities working in this space. They have increased impressions up to 1,500%, while communicating complex ideas in an easily digestible way.
