Make 3 data visualizations using this data (either the mini dataset or the full one) using the ggplot2 skills you learn in Chapter 3 of R for Data Science 2e. Below each data visualization, write a few sentences telling us what insight your graph tells us. Publish your document on RPubs, and submit the URL below.
- This graph demonstrates the inverse relationship between carbon intensity and the MSCI ESG quality score of an ETF. Such a relationship is to be expected, however, this graph also shows that there are several ETFs that have received relatively high MSCI ETF quality scores despite having CO2 intensities on the higher end. It would be an interesting further examination to look into these outliers.
- Within the mini_blackrock_data set, the three funds with the lowest CO2 intensity are all ESG funds. However, there are also regular funds with lower carbon intensities than some other ESG funds.
- This graph visualizes the distribution of ETFs that are ESG Funds by their MSCI ESG fund rating.
