Shahaad And Kennedy Sustainability Project

My group founded eco-care innovations. A healthcare corporation that prioritizes waste management as much as they do the well being of everyone that comes in and out of our doors.

We as people see biodiversity in such high value because it supports our environments (plants, animals,air), which directly impacts our way of life/lifespan. Certain human actions effect this such as water pollution as plastics not only kill animals but full habitats due to It being so hard to breakdown. As a result of certain animals /ecosystems dying, certain animals that rely on both as a food source are then forced to die off or eat their own species, which effects their own species in the long run. This lowers biodiversity because it shortens the variety of life due to killing off species. Individuals can live more sustainably by each analyzing individual eco foot print. An eco footprint is basically bread crumbs of how your actions effect the environment around you. For instance I could have a negative eco footprint if I’m driving an older model car to work everyday, that’s because the fossil fuels produce co2 in the environment which in turn leads to global warming. So just being aware and willing to change is enough. This project deepened my understanding by showing me how many forms of sustainability there could be. There were so many creative ways people chose to improve on an existing industry in a healthy way, it was baffling.The info that surprised me most about my industry is just how much wast is mismanaged per year. It’s crazy because it just shows how something so simple could be that harmful to our environment. Kennedy contributions: I made the model, going shopping and coming home to make my arts in craft project out of my shoebox Shahaad: I made the slides, with help from Kennedy researched and sorted all of my stats to create them all.
