Welcome to episode 5 of season 1 of Explore Explain, a video and podcast series all about data visualisation design.

In this episode I am delighted to welcome Simon Scarr to share the design story behind his work on two Reuters visualisations about plastics: 'Drowning in plastic' and 'A plateful of plastic'.

As well as listening to this show, you can watch the video of this conversation, illuminated by accompanying visual details of Simon's workflow. Head over to Youtube and visit the Explore Explain channel.
