Lead Judges' Special Award - Jessica Scheurich
"New Zealand Forestry Infographic" by Jessica Scheurich
Description
Lead Remix Judge Helen Baxter selected Jessica's entry for her special award because it is a well designed infographic drawing on New Zealand Forestry information from seven different data sets. This award is sponsored by The Department of Conservation
The Department of Conservation has provided some amazing New Zealand conservation experiences for special entries that grab the attention and admiration of our Lead Judges, Helen Baxter and Nat Torkington.
Jessica's description of the entry:
This amazing infographic allows people to get a general understanding/summary of the forestry industry, which is more so than most currently know. The infographic is broken down into the various benefits for NZ, what's growing in the plantations, where they are growing, what happens to the trees and where it's going to. I have distilled all this information to make it easily digestible and visually rich for all readers.
