One Way to Look at Things

So I may be getting ahead of myself as we have yet to even really start talking about food, but I found an interesting site. The site, called so_many_a_second illustrates different statistics by streaming pictures dow the web browser. From the site itself:

"so_many_a_second is a visualizer that shows mondial statistics on a human scale. Depicting the ongoing stream of events, this application tries to get the user in touch with the emotional actuality of these objective data."

Some of the more relevant statistic the site includes are things like how many tons of food are produced per second, how many new people have no access to water per second, and how many trees are cut down per second. I liked the way the site help give a more solid meaning to numbers we talk about all the time.
