The country with the highest carbon intensity value has a black background, this can be misleading for the user:

In this example, the highest value is 671 (black colour) and the second highest value is 569 (dark brown). The difference between them is only 102 but the user may think the difference is much higher because of the contrast between the black and dark brown colour.

I would suggest to change the worst colour to a dark shade of brown.

Hello Merildev. Thanks for your suggestion. We had already discussed the point on issue #92 and decided to go for black when most of the electricity comes from coal. I let you give a look at the discussion we had back then.

Best regards,

Thierry

I am actually thinking quite a lot about the colorscale, and I will keep your comment in mind.
It would be nice to have a scale that constantly increases in brightness, as discussed in #182
