Our team had chosen to make a presentation on the dangers of water contamination, a topic that had recently become important to us as a result of a leak of 8,000 gallons of a water-based latex finishing solution from the Trinseo Altuglas chemical facility in Bucks County, near Philadelphia. We knew that water is a fundamental resource for life and that contamination can lead to serious health complications, like cancer, and that is one of the main reasons why I wanted to shine a light on the water contamination issue. We wanted to show students how pollution affects water and what we can do to mitigate it. We were able to get our message across effectively through a short tiktok film, and I feel our greatest strength was our teamwork. We put in many hours after school, discussing ideas, organizing our time, and my editing skills were essential to the success of the project. There isn’t anything I would change in the end, and we were very proud of the outcome.
