My project focuses on the questions: How can the organization of information and linear narratives help educate interested parties about the meat industry and the role that it plays within our lives, the environment, and the lives of animals.
From my research, I began exploring the possibilities of how I could organize my information. The series of posters below are part of these experiments. I discovered a relationship between what we are already doing to conserve water in our daily lives and the potential to save even more by reducing our meat consumption. From there I decided that the message of my project would be a logical presentation of how reducing your meat consumption affects your health, the environment, and the lives of animals. This idea informed the last part of my project, which is the web 2.0 community Effort{less} that allows users to upload and track their efforts to reduce their meat consumption.
