[CASL-L] Datasets

[Janice Pellegrino]

Hi Thomas -

Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but one of my social
studies teachers loves the website Visual Capitalist for infographics:
http://www.visualcapitalist.com/

Google Trends also provides a ton of data on topics that people are
searching for: https://trends.google.com/trends/?geo=US

The Resource Watch Data Repository and Web Maps site is also good for data
sets: "T

he Resource Watch Data Repository & Web Maps contains more than 210 data
sets offering visual statistics on world maps in a wide range of subject
areas."
