View FIJI Water in a larger map

  1. Very nicely done! I like that you included the story about FIJI dumping and burning plastic bottles, however it would be nice to have a link to some information about that online if possible or otherwise cite the source. I especially like what you did with the shipping route, rather than drawing a straight line it looks like you tried to show the actually route. Good job!

  2. A link to the plastic-burning issue would be nice, I agree, however, it's great that you contrasted FIJI's poor environmental stewardship with their efforts to be more 'green' (shipping to Philly instead of using trucks). The sourcing is quite clear, and is easy to follow. Highlighting the largest markets that FIJI sells to might have been interesting in that it would illustrate the discrepancies between sourcing in the global south and selling in the global north. I liked this map for its clarity and effectiveness. Great job Orion!
