About the final project for: Fundamentals of Data Visualization

Fundamentals of Data Visualization

“Thank you very much for accompanying me here. I hope that you can apply everything you have learned to your projects and that you have a lot of fun doing it.

Finally, I want to invite you to actively participate in the forum, not only sharing your progress, but also giving advice and trying to help the rest of the community. See you in the forum!”

In my case, I have done it about climate change, but you can do whatever you want.
