We focused on where we think we need trash and recycling receptacles outdoors on campus. We also discussed what questions to ask in a survey for students.

Today we discussed how we are going to interview Chow and dining hall staff and set up a day to observe the way waste is distributed. Our final question is, "On average, how much of the waste in Chow could be composted and what could be done with that composted material?"

Today in our lab we took pictures of the trash cans and evaluated the trash already in the cans. We learned that people are already putting trash in the recycling bins. We also looked at the recycling bins inside the suites and looked for any signage. We ended the class with working on our outline.

We came to the conclusion that our original idea for the project was unattainable because there is not enough room for a bio-remediation area. After talking to the professor, we decided to change our project into placing a green roof on top of HNS. We need to do more research, but the goal is to calculate how much storm water is produced and how much a  green roof will reduce such water. We will be trying to get access to the HNS building's roof and to make a model of soil and plants suitable for a green roof.

During our lab time, we observed the printers available in the library, the amount of recycling bins, and the usage and accessibility of duplex printing. We took lots of pictures of the available printers and recyling bins. We also checked some of those printers for duplex printing options to lower paper waste at UNG. We thought about ideas and ways to measure all of this information.

Today we met as a group in our proposed location, which was the area around the drill field. After looking around and observing the landscape we decided that we needed to move locations. The areas around the drill field seemed to be efficiently landscaped and full. We have found other places on campus that could use more plant life and after more research we are going to go from there.

We found out how many computers there are in the school library along with the fact that they are not shut off through the night. And we took a lot of pictures (of both the area and the model of the computers) and brainstormed ideas of how to measure the energy used.

Today we met and discussed switching from doing recycling in The Suites to an assessment of the recycling bins in common areas on campus.We are going to 5 major buildings on campus to count recycling bins and to see if they are visibly labeled and accesible. We want to see if the bins on campus are being taken advantage of. Today we started on HNS and felt it had a decent number or recycling bins clearly labeled.

We assigned roles to everyone in our group things such as making a survey to measure potential participation at a university sanctioned farmers market, conducting research into what land we own and where and what crops we grew when we were an agricultural college, finding out what products we use in our food now to find out what would be the most helpful to grow, and even looking into where we get our food now and the cost and efficiency of it.

We found out our general question that needs to be answered. We are going to set up a waste bin for an hour in chow to collect a visual representation of how much food is actually wasted. This will raise awareness to show the students to lessen their portions. Then, we will conduct a follow up experiment to see students progress.

We found out that a lot of people do not know what to do with their recycle bins once they are full. Many people have them outside their doors in the hallway and they appear to be relatively full. We walked some of the halls in the lower half of the dorm to see who uses their recycle bins and how full they were, and talked to one of the RA's for the building. We will be continuing to talk to not only the RA's and the RD (Residence Director) for Lewis Hall but also some of the students that live there to find out how much knowledge there is about the recycling process and how it should be implemented.

After our scheduled meeting at 3:30, we went to the area by the suites and took pictures of the types of trees we found near the dumpster area. We took pictures of the bark, the leaves, and the whole tree picture to classify them. What we discovered was that there were three main types of trees in that little sidewalk area. (Where we are pictured). Essentially, UNG has put cookie-cutter trees to make it more of a "green space". Since these trees are very small, compared to the other trees near HOAG, we assumed that the combined effect of the small trees was equal to the effect of one larger tree on the environment.

We found out that the library has very few recycling bins, but the ones they do have we being used. Majority of the recycling bins were labeled "paper only." Having paper only bins made it very easy for students to recycle, and cut down the amount of paper thrown in the trash can.

We talked about the off campus shuttle and how it only goes to two locations. We also discovered the two locations that it goes to are not that populated. One of which that already has a walking path to campus. We decided we will do a survey of students who live in university Heights to see if it would make a good location for the Shuttle to pick up at.

Today the group met to discuss the details of our project and what we will be responsible for to answer our question. We discussed the costs of a new recycling program throughout dorms, and how we will connect with res life to get data to help us see the savings that would bring!

Today we found out that HNS used a lot of lights. Not a surprise, but it helped us realize how much energy they potentially waste by leaving the lights on. We figured out that, for our project, we are going to see how many lights are on at night in HNS and how much energy this wastes.
(we forgot to take a picture, but did meet with Dr. Ellis.)

Today, the group met to determine individual responsibilities, and to further solidify the question that is meant to be answered. We talked about costs and uses of rainwater capture systems, potential savings, and changed our focus from the HNS parking deck to the HNS building itself in order to focus our research on using rain water in HNS building toilets.

We discovered from Rosann Kent that there will be a new greenhouse built on campus that is in need of compost. It is part of the Appalachian Studies program. If UNG can determine how to compost, there will be a need for the material.
