Chemical Hazardous-ness!


Hello there! For the first project of this class I had to select a data set to make an infographic.

I was browsing on toronto open's data sets source, and I found one that is very intriguing, at least for me.
Facilities record information on the use of different contaminants that are released on the making of products, or chemicals. With these data Toronto Public Health tries to  motivate the population to reduce the use of these chemical products because of the that they have upon the environment, and people's health.

I have already a couple of ideas on the design of my infographic. It might be tedious, and fun at the same time.
