Benchmark Reflection Assignment

The value that we see in the biodiversity and natural resources of the earth is healthy ecosystems that help maintain the earth’s natural processes. Burning fossil fuels, cutting down forests and farming livestock alter the earth’s natural systems. We can live more sustainably spending time outside, recycling, and behaving in a friendly way for the environment.

This project deepened my understanding of sustainability because I learned that my industry was sustainable and the different benefits and trade-offs that come with my industry. What surprised me about my industry was the different types of transportation that would make the environment better and it was pretty cool. I contributed by putting information on the slides, talking about different ideas that my group came up with, and speaking when it was time to present. I am proud of that we got this project over with and I learned something new about other people’s industries as well.
