  3. Our Visualisation

  4. Why did we chose this set of data?What are we adding to publishing? • We questioned whether C02 emissions specifically affects life expectancy • This graphic adds to the archive of scientific visualisations • Pollutionis a highly scrutinised and relevant issue in contemporary political agenda. It is becoming increasingly important to Australians

  5. In which publics does this visualisation intervene? • It is an issue at affects all in society • Political leaders – to inform policy • Theorists – to shed light on previous independent studies

  6. Strengths of our Visualisation • Strengths • Clear visual explaining the relationship between C02 and life expectancy; easy to decipher information • Visible breakdown of continents • Image is impactful • Message is conveyed quickly

  7. Weaknesses of our Visualisation • Lacks detail • Limited quantity of information • Data possibly out-dated

  8. Results • Does the relationship actually exist? • Somewhat inconclusive • Further research is required
