A House Divided

Posted by Grist at 11:57 AM on 01 Mar 2006

You know how, in grade school, it was easier to understand multiplication when there were pictures of fruit and panda bears involved? Today we bring you that. Only, the multiplication is now stats about poverty and the environment. And the pictures of fruit and panda bears are now an original illustration by Keri Rosebraugh. Which has pop-up factoids. We bet you haven't had this much fun since grade school. Check it out.

Interesting graphics and analysis. I think there is always the pros and cons in everything. Same for lining in poverty or wealth. Sure it may seems that the poor are living in quite a bad environment but I guess the air is much fresher than the one in urban areas where there is more air pollution.

This interactive illustration was really eye opening. the facts were really interesting, and the idea fresh.
