The Data

Given a list of events related to the infamous Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion of 2010 and the subsequent events, I was asked to diagram them for user understanding. I decided to focus on the environmental toll on the region as well as BP's financial events over a 5 month period of time to drive home the point that negative effects on the environment can be correlated to negative financial performance, thus encouraging large environmentally intensive organizations to consider deeply their impact on the world. 

All graphics were developed by me.
