The Geosocial Universe


I found it interesting to refer to the social world. Increasingly the world is becoming more computerized so the global village.The use of internet  has increased every year, so more and more people join the social networks. In this infographic to see what we have achieved is the most used and least. I find it interesting to do a reflection on this issue because if we buy what was there 10 years ago with what exists now is a giant difference.
What do you think of a more global world?

OBAMA VS ROMNEY

In the elections 2012, Obama vs Romney, Obama wins. Women have increasingly been evidenced both in politics and in the economy and other matters of extreme importance in society. Obama has more support by the part of women than men. 
Will be that's what saved him?

PLANES - IT IS THE CRISIS?

In this case intend to illustrate the evolution of the occupation number of planes, we can see that has been declining.
WILL BE THE CRISIS?

MEAT CONSUMPTION


In this infographic compare two countries Burundi and Denmark in terms of climate and GDP per capita and with this two relationships can perceive the consumption of meat each level. Burundi has a better climate for the production of meat but do not have enough money for meat consumption is low. He has no money to feed the animals can not produce meat soon.
The relationship between climate and money is implied. And with this we can see that there is a huge discrepancy between developed and less developed countries.
Do you think that there are two worlds?

Which country is better to live?


In this infographic the goal is decide which country is the best to live. . So relate the rate of homicides and population growth in 2010. For me the best country that I choose to live is the one who have the lowest homicide rate for the sake of safety and which has a population growth rate lower because I do not really like country with many people! In this inforgrafico realize that the country with the lowest percentage is canada and is also one of the countries with the lowest growth rate.
And for you what would be your country? And why?
