Our Visualisation

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

• Pollution is a highly scrutinised and relevant issue in contemporary political agenda. It is becoming increasingly important to Australians
