We live by using various pictograms in our daily lives. Pictograms are a symbolic picture language and have the advantage that anyone can easily and quickly recognize them. In particular, pictograms that announce disaster situations are widely used in each country. This is an era of climate crisis. Climate disasters are getting more and more serious. However, we are not officially using pictograms that symbolize the climate crisis. This overlooks the seriousness of the climate crisis. In this study, we would like to propose a climate crisis symbol pictogram that can be used together by the world. It is designed to visually recognize the climate crisis by synthesizing the graph of the increase in global surface temperature in the IPCC 6th report and the heating stripes of Professor Ed Hawkins at the University of Reading in the UK. It is expected that international organizations related to the climate crisis, such as IPCC, UNFCCC, and UNEP, will use this pictogram in various ways to publicize the seriousness of the climate crisis.
