Description of the Problem and Motivation
Recent president candidate of the US, Mr Donald Trump thinks that climate change is a hoax. That is really worrying, especially when current polls are showing that he is having a real chance in winning the election. Our team seeks to validate the climate change's truthfulness by exploring and visualizing ocean, land and weather data. Thus, we hope through this project, we settle the fact once and for all. Moreover, this serves as a tool to raise the awareness and understanding of our mother Earth's health status. How the climate has changed over time, which stage are we in and how many years does Singapore has left to stay above the sea level.
