Hello, I enjoyed reading this article. Obviously our water is crucial to us for so many reasons, but I feel that people including myself don’t realize just how much of an issue our water is and why we need to make it better but this is something this infographic does really well to explain. I liked the percentages that were used as it gives the reader a more precise understanding on the issue and makes us realize how bad it’s getting. Great layout and use of images and colors.

57%! That number is immense to hear about. The amount of neglect that is happening to our water streams without a doubt is of importance. I like the theme of the poster and thing it does well to guide the reader but at the same time poster seems very passive. It does not seem to radiate the energy that this is an important problem needs to be handled urgently.

The visual appeal of this was out of this world. I loved the way you were talking about water and added the wave elements into the infographic. It really made the information connect with the visual aspect of the infographic. The information was well structured and not overpowering. Visually, I was intrigued and it made me want to read and learn about the subject matter.

Really good job with this infographic. This topic relates to Civic Engagement because we as a community need to ensure that our environment and, in this case, our rivers, have clean water so it can be beneficial and useful to us. Something I liked was the use of statistics, they were very useful in understanding and backing up the information that was being talked about. Something that I would have done differently is maybe implement more data to the infographic.

I really like the aesthetic of this graphic! I had no idea our water was impacted that much here in town, that is really interesting and a little gross. It’s sad for the wildlife that live in it. I do like how you provided a way to help and even included the QR code to scan that would bring up the page on how to be a river warrior. That is a really effective and simple way of increasing engagement. Excellent idea.

Wow! This has been my favorite infographic by far! I believe it’s crucial to remember that, on occasion, we truly need something to attract our attention in order to pay attention, and this infographic is so appealing and lovely to look at. The fact that people take our water for granted and that it does not meet high standards surprises me given how commonplace it is is. Amazing work!

This infographic was informative and visually pleasing. The hand drawn flowers at the end of the infographic were beautiful and the color scheme of pastel blue and pink were an excellent choice. The information and percentage of the impaired creeks was shocking. The QR code to become a river warrior was an excellent idea and easy for the user to get more information. Great job!

This infographic was very good. Particularly with its message and delivery. The intro explains in a very quick but detailed manner as to what its focus is on. Afterwards it further explains how this issue is something that affects us. The use of the design and especially the statistics was very-well done as it put on display front and center where we as a city are at in terms of this issue. I also liked how it provided where someone could go if they were wanting to make a change.

I love this infographic! The colors are pleasing and match the theme. The different size fonts help stress important information. I like the incorporation of the QR code as it symbolizes a point in technology we are in while providing information on how to be a river warrior. Overall, this infographic helps individuals realize a change is needed to protect our water sources.
