    I took the liberty of doing this because the data presented in the FAO document seems to have been calculated for that very purpose

    Few if any countries are sufficiently prepared to deal with the climate disasters to come, warns . A yawning gap has opened up between what they know about the risks of climate change and what they are doing to reduce them.

    Interesting . But we should definitely let the designers know this is not a great way to show data no?

    Replying to @MarieSpiker @andrewtl @jessfanzo
    I guess they're playing with words, considering the "maximally sustainably fished stocks" as "fished to their limits". For 2017, 59.6% of MSFS and 34.2% of overfished equals 93.8%

    Good "catch" . Let's call them on it.

    Replying to @andrewtl @jessfanzo
    Yeah this is gorgeous web design and compelling communication. I need a fact check though: they state "93% of marine fish stocks have been fished to their limits or overfished," but I thought the latest FAO estimate was 33%? (see p.54 of the 2020 SOFIA: )

    Thanks . Shall we inform them? Let's push the right facts no?

    Replying to @jessfanzo @andrewtl
    Agree with others. Wonderful design comes unstuck on poor science and fact checking. It's an important message that doesn't need discredited sensationalism to carry it
