Above is a Pie Graph I found in an article about a Fox news story on offshore drilling for oil. In the article, it explains that the argument of the story is that Mother Nature spills more oil than Exxon, Shell, and BP put together. This pie graph represents the different sources and their percentage of contribution of oil into the water. This pie graph is also an example of critical cartography because of the choice of information selected to make this argument that mother nature makes more of a contribution of oil into the environment than consumers, transportation, and offshore drilling combined.
