Metro Graphics Do Good, Paris

Gotta love it when graphics do good. One of the main hubs of the Paris Metro system has a long stretch of info graphics. As you step onto the moving sidewalk, the graphics start to come into view. Telling passengers how many gallons of gas, travel time, CO2 and years off of your life are saved through participating in the metro system. The statistics were really impactful. They ranged from macro to micro, from the individual to city-wide.

They are designed well because they can communicate a great deal across language barriers. I mean, my French is pretty good, but a lot of the important facts communicate immediately.

If we got people in LA present to the difference using public transportation, you think it would make a difference?

Stay tuned for the video so you can see the graphics in their entirety.
