D3 is about visualization and presentation of data. It's likely you'll want to change the styling of elements based on the data. You can use a callback function in the `style()` method to change the styling for different elements.

For example, you may want to color a data point blue if it has a value less than 20, and red otherwise. You can use a callback function in the `style()` method and include the conditional logic. The callback function uses the `d` parameter to represent the data point:

```js
selection.style("color", (d) => {
/* Logic that returns the color based on a condition */
});
```

The `style()` method is not limited to setting the `color` - it can be used with other CSS properties as well.

Add the `style()` method to the code in the editor to set the `color` of the `h2` elements conditionally. Write the callback function so if the data value is less than 20, it returns "red", otherwise it returns "green".

**Note**
You can use if-else logic, or the ternary operator.
