Hello friends 👋
I’m experimenting with something new today. Instead of my usual format for explainers, I’m explaining today’s topic using comics alone.
When you’re done reading, leave a comment to let me know if you want to see this format more frequently and what I could’ve done better.
Enjoy!

COP27
The UN’s annual climate change conference kicks off in Egypt on November 6. I’ll be sharing any interesting updates or decisions that come out of it on my Instagram @futurewithfawzi.
How would you rate this week's edition?
.Your cartoon presentation was excellent, very well broken down, easy to follow and remember.
Would love to see more visual / comic explainers.
I think the comic-only format could work well for many topics.
