ReportEarth chart archive

Since I began this Substack in March 2025, I've been making lots of charts. Now they can all live in one place.

This page was last updated on 4/16/2026.

ReportEarth publishes a lot of charts, usually using the excellent Datawrapper tool to ensure that they look reasonably good on desktop, mobile, and in emails. Indeed, as of April 15, 2026, I’ve published 43 of them!

This URL is an attempt to create an archive of these. Eventually, I may need to break this into multiple pages as it grows. We’ll see.

Those charts published with Datawrapper are all sharable: Just click on the word “Datawrapper” in each to get its URL.

I struggled with how to organize these, and for now have decided on a two tier system. The charts that have been recently updated appear at the top, and are in their own category. These tend to feature monthly data or, in one case so far, daily data.

Below these, the charts that have not been recently updated are organized by topic. Many of these feature annual data, or data that just isn’t being updated regularly or at all (data found in a single published scientific study, for instance). Or, these charts represent cases in which updating is possible, but I just haven’t gotten around to doing it yet for some reason.

Stepping back: I’m constantly trying to find new ways to visualize data, and I’m very open to trying out different geoms and other approaches. So these visualizations may evolve, and their numbers will certainly grow.

First, just scroll down for charts that have been recently updated.

For charts that were not recently updated, organized by topic, you can click the following links:
