P2 Statement

Subject
Ecological Footprint (U.S. Totals, Washington state specific).
Objective: Activist/Advocacy
To educate the Washington state citizen on the impact of their lifestyle to the environment.
Ecological Footprint encompasses carbon emissions as well as the consumption of food, fuel, wood, and fiber. It’s a measure of the area needed to support a population’s lifestyle. When looking at data the U.S. has the highest ecological footprint so I’d like to focus on the U.S. and break in down to states and what elements are creating the high numbers.
Content
It will incorporate methods of transforming data into meaning found in The 48 design patterns: The Form of Facts and Figures. Ideally, you will frame these separate 'slices' of information in conjunction with each other, and in conjunction with images and illustrations germane to your topic.
Destination and Format: Web/online; interactive piece (html or .swf)
