DATA SOURCE

https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/toriqulstu/global-socio-economic-and-environmental-indicators

This comprehensive dataset provides a rich collection of socio-economic and environmental indicators for countries across the world. Spanning the years from 1990 to 2021, the dataset includes valuable information on Human Development Index (HDI), Life Expectancy, Gross National Income per Capita (GNI), and CO2 Production.

PROTOCOL

1. Data Concatenation from Multiple Sources:

Four distinct datasets were sourced from Kaggle and subsequently concatenated into a single comprehensive dataset.

This consolidated dataset was then further combined with an additional dataset obtained from GitHub.

2. Data Preprocessing and Feature Selection:

A focused selection of features was made for the analysis, including 'geometry', 'year', 'population in 2021', 'co2', 'Region', 'Formal Name', 'co2_including_luc'.

Data corresponding to the year 2021 was exclusively extracted for further processing. Additionally, a thorough check for missing values was performed, and it was observed that the dataset did not contain any missing values.

3. Data Visualization Using Flourish:

The Flourish software platform was employed to visualize the data. A map representation template was chosen for this purpose.

The finalized dataset was uploaded to Flourish.

Appropriate columns were selected to construct a data visualization that effectively demonstrates the World CO2 Production in 2021 per each country.
