Interesting data, but I don’t think it is beautifully presented. Bar charts, or maybe a blown up pie charts may be easier to grasp the scale.

Blobs of the largely same color, dispersed in a random pattern make it hard to quickly see scale

The beautiful presentation was chosen to underline a message.

which would have been a lot more clear in a bar chart

It's like yesterdays post https://lemmy.ml/post/2352771 with a map of the US. The circle could represent earth.

This one wasn’t very good either.
