“HOW MANY ANIMALS ARE KILLED FOR FOOD?”
The development of the project was driven by a desire to uncover the environmental and societal impact of meat production. It began by selecting the critical question: "How many animals are killed for food?" From there, the project delved into the global landscape of meat production and its contributions to pollution and environmental degradation.
The challenge lay in curating meaningful data that would not only inform but also engage the audience
in understanding the scope of meat consumption worldwide.
The data collection process was both vast and complex, requiring careful aggregation of reliable sources. I narrowed down the data, highlighting key insights on meat production trends, animal slaughter rates, and the industry's role in global warming. Through this process, we crafted an informative narrative designed to prompt reflection on our dietary choices and their far-reaching consequences.

Design Process
The design process began with rough hand sketches to brainstorm and visualize initial concepts.
These sketches served as the foundation for refining the layout and infographics. After gathering feedback, the ideas were translated into digital sketches, allowing for more precise adjustments and creative direction. This iterative process ensured that the final design effectively communicated the project's data and message.
