What’s On The News? - Web Dev 2019
Project Overview
What’s on the News? is an interactive comic-style website that humorously explores global warming and its unintended consequences. The story follows a protagonist who protests against environmental harm, only to be criticized for the carbon footprint of his activism. This satirical take highlights the complexities of climate advocacy in a light-hearted, thought-provoking way.
Technology and Design
Built with HTML and CSS, the website combines traditional comic storytelling with interactive features. Users engage through clickable panels and animations, which guide the narrative and enhance the experience.
Reflection
This project was an experiment in using interactivity to tell stories. Blending humor with a serious topic like climate change challenged me to balance engagement with messaging. Future improvements could include more dynamic features or branching storylines to deepen the interaction.
