Reflection Questions:

How did this project deepen your understanding of sustainability?

• Throughout this project I have notice that there are so many more ways that sustainability could be done. I feel like I have always known about the electric cars, and clothing but it helped me be able to see the actual process around it. However it did also make me realize how expensive it will be to do so.

What information about your chosen industry surprised you most? Why?

• The most that surprised me was founding out about all the little things throughout healthcare that seem obvious to use were not being used.

How did you contribute to your groups project? Provide specific examples. What were you proud of, in terms of your overall project?

• I came up with the idea of putting the solar on top and also creating the hospital idea. As small and unrealistic they are, I am proud of the solar panels on top.
