Great background picture! Where is it from?

Your 'sustainable padlet'. Is is sustainable?

Task 1

23078241 — 2023-06-25 13:37:50 UTC

The property of being sustainable.
This consists of at least the economic, social, and environmental pillars.
For example, rational use of resources, reduction of waste and pollution, promotion of environmental awareness and technological innovation. We need to take measures to protect the environment and reduce our impact on the environment. This can be achieved by using renewable energy, reducing fossil fuel use, improving energy efficiency and promoting environmentally friendly transport

Task 2

23078241 — 2023-06-25 14:04:54 UTC

1.Designer:Helena Elston
These remaining fabrics are pasted together using the mycelium growth process for about six weeks, creating wearable pieces that biodegrade once the wearer wears them.
The idea at the heart of the project is that once worn, the wearer can "completely break down" the clothes instead of discarding them in the trash, thereby reducing waste.

Task 2

23078241 — 2023-06-25 14:15:09 UTC

Designer:Lsabelle Azais
The jewelry works are made from recycled plastic. Plastic bags, plastic foam, plastic bottles... These plastic waste that would otherwise end up in landfills and the ocean, under Isabelle's creative design, seems to have a new life. At first glance, people can't tell that these are from waste plastic, as if they are artworks that can be worn.

Task 3

23078241 — 2023-06-25 14:19:51 UTC

The creative idea proposed by Mark Aver was to showcase the Nike Air VaporMax 2020 Flyknit collection made from at least 50% recycled material by weight, making full use of corner materials, recycled polyester, recycled foam, air soles made from at least 75% recycled TPU were also made, an important step towards Nike's goal of zero carbon emissions and zero waste.

Task 4

23078241 — 2023-06-26 06:21:52 UTC

In my daily life, I will bundle up the discarded paper boxes and sell them to the garbage recycling station when I have time, so that they can be used for a second time. I also often use the water left over from washing clothes to store up, and use it to pour the toilet or mop the floor, so as to realize the secondary use of water resources and not waste water resources.

Task 3

23078241 — 2023-06-26 06:29:23 UTC

Bamboo fiber product

Fashion has a problem as it set up currently, it is about fast turnover. It's actually true about new look change. New look change. And eco-credentials are a small. Part of that is the fashion industry is now catching on. Green is the new black and bamboo fabric is part of this new vogue. People are looking strongly for different fibers,and quite a few have come forward. Number was been one more recent ones, and people are looking at it in regard this properties. So this particular fabric is bamboo fabric.That's right, because it's this fineness,it probably means that it will be able to absorb water. Alternatively, it may one those fibers that you can actually breath. I can see from the feel. While this would be so appealing because it is really,very soft against, with skin,with the softness.

WHY WE CHOOSE TOBACCO ASH?
Tobacco doesn't just negatively impact the health of individuals, it also endangers the health of the environment. E-cigarette and cigarette waste can make its way into the environment where it pollutes water, air,and land with toxic chemicals, heavy metals, and residual nicotine. An estimated 766,571 metric tons of cigarette butts make their way into the environment every year, and according to the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, at least five disposable e-cigarettes are being thrown away every second in the United States,amounting to 150 million devices per year -which together contain enough lithium for about 6,000 Teslas. E-cigarette waste contributes to the already overwhelming issue of general electronic waste: in 2019,Americans generated 6.92 kilotons of consumer electronic waste, including e-cigarette waste, all bound for landfills or incinerators.

Group presentation

Good afternoon everyone. My name is …………………….. . Let me introduce the other members of Group Air Pollution. A, B, C and D.

In the end, we chose to make a coffin out of many products under consideration, and used the acetate fiber extracted from the cigarette holder to make a coffin.
After some research, we found out that the material used for the mouthpiece is acetate, a plasticized plant fiber, which is ideally suited as a sustainable material because of its biodegradable and moldable qualities, so it can be chopped up into pellets and reshaped into the product we need--the Coffins.
What's special about us is that so far no one seems to have thought of making coffins out of cigarette butts. As Sophia mentioned earlier, the material used in coffins in the past was mostly wood, and cutting down too many trees would cause ecological damage. Therefore, we chose a new raw material to replace wood. The degradability of acetate fiber perfectly avoids environmental pollution, and the simple shape design also avoids more material consumption.

First group presentation exercise

23078241 — 2023-07-19 04:56:49 UTC

Although I knew that I was practicing with many classes, I was still very nervous when I entered the meeting and saw so many people.
Fortunately, we had practiced two or three times before, and although we were a little nervous, we did well in the end. When making ppt, members of our team worked together, each of them was responsible for different parts. Because we finished ppt together, we had a good understanding of each other's speech, and we could complete PPT smoothly when changing the number of pages. This group ppt has brought me a brand new experience, which is a good opportunity to exercise myself for win-win cooperation, and everyone gives full play to their own advantages to complete the task together.
After the speech was accepted, the teachers also put forward some suggestions. For example, it is very important to interact with the audience during the speech, the voice should not be monotonous, the hand should not support the cheek, and the body language is the best. In the content of the speech to control the time, do not blindly say a part, to think about the whole. It was a valuable experience for me.
