I thoroughly enjoyed how you incorporated pictures and graphs in your website at the appropriate categories developed with explanations for these visual aids and their purpose in your website. I think that your audience will really appreciate the organizational flow of the information as well. In terms of informational content, I think you weren’t very verbose in terms of commentary but could use a bit more information for your website so it can be even more informative for your audience. I also think you should revise the title and front page of your blog so that more people can truly understand what your website is about.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed looking through your website. The topic is very similar to mine but I liked how you focused on food distribution and the importance of eating local. I thought that the section on invasives was very well done and an interesting topic to bring up in terms of food. Your use of data and images was also very nice.
ReplyDeleteI thought that the synthesis on megatons of carbon dioxide produced through food transportation was a good choice since people often don't take into account transportation production when looking at the impact their food has on the environment.
For your home page it might be nice to go into a little more detail on your topic and have an introduction.
