Essentially these are basic bar and pie charts, but dressed up to make the overall graphic more compelling. The message is still clear though, and the author gets his point across very strongly. This comes from a 2007 article in the New Scientist called " Earth's Natural Wealth: an Audit " that include two more infographics as well. The first is a map of where in the world are these natural resources are.
