Climate change

The last year, following the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference the Mexican governement launched a public challenge; the challenge was to develop an app that allows the public know about the climate change and collaborate with actions for mitigate it.

The app visualize the kernel data of the challenge: the greenhouse effect gas emission in Mexico. The emission is shown by year, and it is splitted by economic sector or by gas component.

Annual emission

The annual emission with a linear adjust is shown the following graph, the apps allows add or delete the linear adjust as well to choose the years to show.

Emission by economy sector

The following graph shows the emission by economic sector, the apps allows to choose if the data are shown grouped or in an individual way, here is individual.

Emission by gas component

Finally, if the data is choosen to be shown grouped, you could choose to graph them as an area graph or as a contribution graph, as in this case.
