10/27:
I was in my studio working from 4-7pm.
I spent my time revising my thesis draft and putting together my midterm presentation.
Through doing this I learned more about my project and it clarified it a bit for my.
10/29:
I was in my studio from 3:30-6:30
I spent a little bit of time refining my midterm presentation for tomorrow.
The rest of the rest of the time I spent creating a table of contents for my handbook. I decided that instead of having my tips spread throughout the book that I would have them go in sections as to what type of tip they were. My rough Table of Contents is as follows:
1 - What is global warming
- Global warming explained
- Greenhouse gasses explained
- Causes of global warming
- Scenarios if we don't deal with global warming
2- Your footprint
- How to find out your carbon footprint
- Carbon footprint averages throughout the world compared
3- Tips for your house
- Tightening leaky faucet
- Turning down your thermostat
- Buying compact fluorescent bulbs
- Fix drafts in your house
4- Tips for school
- Print less
- Bring your lunch
- Take the bus, walk, or ride a bike
5- Tips during daily routine
- Turn the faucet off while you brush teeth
- Take shorter showers
- Turn lights off when not using them
- Unplug things when done with them
- Turn off computer and unplug when not in use
6- Shopping
- Buy in bulk (in the sense of big containers means less packaging and waste)
- Bring your own bag
- Eat less meat
- Buy recycled products
Obviously the order of these things will change and I will be including informational graphics about the environment and global warming through out all of this.
