Scenario

Al Gore, the 45th Vice President of the United and renowned environmentalist, has hired you. Many people believe that global warming is a fallacy and that the current uproar about drastic climatic changes is mere political rhetoric championed by extremists. Their belief is that hydrocarbons released into our atmosphere over the past century are the main cause of major climate changes that have contributed to global warming.

Mr. Gore needs to demonstrate that there is merit to the present claim of a global warming crisis. To do this, he has asked you to create a visual presentation of the contiguous U.S. climatological changes for the past 100 years in yearly increments. Also, Mr. Gore would like you to create a visualization story utilizing qualitative data extracted from the various sources of 2015 Greenhouse Gas Emissions. The audiences that he intends to present your findings to are the naysayers both in Congress and key industrialists.

Question 1: Identify the needs of your audience.

Question 2: Explain your presentation and the justification for the data sets you used.

Question 3: Discuss presentation of data using editorial thinking and communication.

Question 4: Identify data found to be unavailable, and provide an explanation of why it is not available.

Question 5: Devise a plan to turn insight derived from the data into actions to meet the communication goals.

Question 6: Explain what makes this insight actionable.
