My name is Byron Cox and I am an environmental science major from the city of Helotes, Texas. I'm currently a junior with a set graduation date of May 2023 and a desire to aid in city-wide conservation efforts. I often spend my time being with friends or doing volunteer work, though the best times are when I'm doing both! My goal is to do the most I can for the conservation field, and I look forward to a career someday doing just that.

As a kid, when I found out that there was Chlorine in our water, I couldn’t believe it! I’ve always hated the smell of public pools, and the fact it was in our water was outrageous. However, I later found out that it ensured that our drinking water was safe. Water is a necessity for our community, and if not clean, there could be severe consequences.

Hey Byron I really enjoyed your infographic. It was very simple and to the point while remaining very informative. I was intrigued by the color choices you used in this infographic because when I think about chlorine for some reason my brain thinks blue for water and green for germs, therefore this was perfectly settling for that thought. Overall the layout is really nice and I learned new things such as chlorine being able to kill Covid-19.

Before reading this article, I did not have any idea about water chlorination, but after reading it I found this article very educational. The author did a great job by explaining every aspect, such as concerns, impact on diseases, and on coronavirus surrounding water chlorination, the information was very easy to understand, and the images helped too. Then, the last part is very important since it calls for the audience to give importance on how beneficial it is for the public health.

I found this infographic to be extremely informative, easy to follow and useful. I was able to follow the chain of sequence the infographic creator intended for the reader. I appreciated the use of relevant stats, and the address of concerns as many people are apprehensive about ingesting chlorine. In addition, the potential benefits concerning the impact of chlorine for the COVID-19 virus/outbreak was also valuable to the infographic, particualrly since it a topic many individuals are familiar with.

I enjoyed this infographic by Bryon Cox. He did a great job starting with an interesting and appealing title to his audience. My first look at this article and thoughts were, “why is chlorine essential or even impactful?”. I am not informed on this topic, and he gave a great foundation not only by having a well-thought-out color scheme but as well including images that went along with the text. When discussing such a huge issue that affects our environment, it is quite challenging to put the most essential information on the infographic. It is important to make the information compelling and able to reach various individuals but also to gather the whole perspective on the topic. I learn something new every day and the importance of water chlorination for our environment as well as the awareness is imperative.

This infographic is so interesting and informative! While reading, I learned that water chlorination is very essential because it kills diseases and bacteria in water by the addition of chlorine. Something that I found especially interesting is that it can even be used to halt the spread of the coronavirus. I also thought that the graphics in this infographic were very cool.

Hello Bryan! I really enjoyed this infographic about water chlorination. Water chlorination is not something I can say I am very familiar with, but this infographic allowed me to learn information effectively. I thought the color palette and the symbols/pictures definitely worked in your favor. I also appreciated that you were able to mention facts that people could make connections with such as the relationship Covid-19 and water chlorination have. Overall, I was very impressed by this infographic and learned more about water chlorination than I ever thought I would have.

It was very interesting to learn about the history of chlorine and its many health benefits. I did not realize how beneficial it was against Covid-19. Well done to you for including its history while still tying it to recent times! Very cool infographic as well.

Hi Byron! This topic was very interesting for me to find out about and learn! I had never had this knowledge and the impacts that water chlorination has on the body and viruses. I think it’s so cool that chlorine was helpful to stop the spread of the coronavirus in the water. This infographic was perfect; straight to the point, simple, and so informative. Seeing how safer our water is compared to the 60s was also really interesting to know. Thank you for this!

This infographic was very pleasing to look at. I enjoy graphics that are easy to follow and look clean which this one had. The topic of Water Chlorination is an important one. We learn that through this process it helps our overall health and should be talked about more. The visuals on the graphic were straight forward and easy to understand. I hope to accomplish the same look in the Infographic we are about to submit.
