Rendered analysis and visual evidence
This page presents the two principal visual outputs from the project: a scatter plot that compares policy strength and food waste, and a stacked bar chart that shows the sector composition of total waste for the highest-waste countries. The charts are paired with short analytical notes so the page reads like a finished submission rather than a draft.
Primary observation: France sits at the highest policy score, while Nigeria combines one of the lowest policy scores with the highest total waste value in the dataset.
Interpretive note: The points do not form a perfect downward trend, which suggests that policy strength matters but does not fully explain waste outcomes by itself.
Analytical use: This visualization directly supports the project question by showing how policy and waste relate across countries.
Pattern: Household waste is the largest component in nearly every case shown, with foodservice contributing the next largest share and retail remaining the smallest.
Why it matters: The stacked view explains the total values by sector, which makes the data easier to interpret than a single total alone.
Submission value: This chart is a strong visual summary for a presentation slide, written reflection, or final report.
