Kind of hate slide 1. There's no point in specifying 'in billions of USD' if you're only including percentages. The entire pie chart could represent a trillion dollars, or $25, and they wouldn't have to change a single thing about it.

Edit: Ah, I see, you can hover over them to see the values. Useless as a static image and useless on my phone.
