- a carrot cake
- some raisins
- a pen to write text on the cake
- obesity data from WHO
Percentage of population over 20 with a body-mass index greater than 30
Codes: KW - Kuwait, AE - United Arab Emirates, ZA - South Africa, US - United States, RU - Russia, UK - United Kingdom, IT - Italy, SE - Sweden, NL - the Netherlands, FR - France, JP - Japan, KE - Kenia, IN - India, ET - Ethiopia.
Tip: If you have a huge cake and many raisins you can also visualize obesity in Nauru (71% of population) and Cook Islands (64%).
Interesting statistics. Do you also have the data for Germany/Austria/Switzerland?
ReplyDeleteAnd who will eat the cake now? Am I invited? (I am not obese, so no harm done ;o)
Germany: 21%
ReplyDeleteAustria: 18%
Switzerland: 15%
I was thinking about sending invitation on Facebook but you know how it can be with Facebook invitations lol
South Sea Islanders do not consider themselves obese, do they? That is their status symbol.
ReplyDeleteNow that is clearly the work of a dataviz fanatic. I love it!
