Hello, I really enjoyed this infographic. While I know certain things about recycling and the benefits of doing so, I would not consider myself an expert on this, but this infographic definitely helped me out. I like how it starts off with a graph as it shows us the true reality of recycling. Later on in the infographic, I like how it brings in the issue of low income families and how to provide solutions to make recycling more accessible.

I believe that the fact that recycling is not as easy to participate in for lower-income families is a good piece of information for people to know. The idea of incentives mentioned can be constructed by a reader of this infographic which can contribute to lessening the percentage of people who never recycle with low incomes. I also really like the tidbit of information that the students of today are the future of keeping our planet greener.

Hey! I enjoys checking out your infographic. This relates to Civic Engagement because recycling is a big issue that we deal with nowadays. Even though we have gotten better at recycling, We still need to improve and get better at it as a a community so we can have a clean and safe space to live in. Something that I would change is maybe try to use less text so it can look easier to understand. Something that I really liked was the use of statistics.

The infographic is very visually appealing. I think that the subject matter you picked is very important. I liked how you added the data about how many people support recycling, but added what percentage actually recycles. That was a great first statement and dragged the readers into the rest of the infographic. Overall, it was very visually appealing and had great, informative information.

The color scheme fit the topic perfectly, and it was neatly structured. I liked how you brought up that not everyone has access to recycling, and it conveyed its point really well. I do think that recycling needs to be more widely known in order to save the environment. We need to take care of our planet and keep preserving it for future generations. Amazing work!

I do like one color scheme of your graphics, it all ties in together. I didn’t know that little percentage actually recycled, that’s sad. Your message is on point though, availability to recycle would increase likelihood of recycling and that is something we should all be supportive of. I think educating our youth about the importance of recycling and helping them learn how to get started is a great way to promote this.

Great job using different bold and different size fonts. This is so appealing to the user reviewing the infographic. Your choice in earth colors like grey, yellow and blue were soothing. Your graphic showed how income is a direct result of how much we recycle, and its solutions were an eye opener. Thank you for reminding us how we all need to do our part for the environment.

Recycling is something that a lot of us can easily recall as a topic we might’ve glanced over in our years through public education. However, particularly with this infographics attention-grabbing-title, it wastes no time into truly diving into the details. This is easily seen through the statistics between those who support recycling versus those who actually practice recycling, as well as acknowledging that there is a barrier between recycling ability and income. Overall a great delivery of an important message and very well designed infographic
