The What's In Your Trash infographic explores what constitutes trash in America. From Bolt Insurance, this design breaks down all of the stuff we throw away.
The cleaning services industry brings in more than $50 billion a year, from janitorial services to residential cleaning agencies, and the industry is projected to continue growing. Americans generated more than 250 tons of garbage in 2010. In BOLT's What's In Your Trash infographic, find out what is really in your trash and how important cleaning services and janitorial services are. Through recycling and waste incineration, as much as 90% of waste can bypass the landfill! Presented as an infographic (created for BOLT by Infographic World) to help you more easily visualize and retain this important information.
Although there is a lot of text here that could have been visualized (big fonts aren't a data visualization), I really like the doughnut segments split apart to show different components of the trash. It helps tell the story and lead the reader through the information top-to-bottom of the design.
Thanks to Jane for sending in the link!
