What Is Our Carbon Footprint?
The biggest gift to children:Green World
Summary
In this project, we found suggestions and solution methods for the solution of space wastes by associating the reduction of space pollution with carbon emissions.Our first solution suggestion is that Launching a space vehicle into space and collecting space garbage as Remove Debris.Remove Debris will send garbages to the Earth but our solution is a bit different then.We want this space vehicle to have a recycling system in itself and to pour the recycled material into certain molds and obtain some parts.The parts obtained are clamped and delivered by other satellites or ISS to that satellite when needed during repair.The astronauts taking some garbage pieces when they back to Earth.
How We Addressed This Challenge
As we mentioned in our subject, we are worry about our world’s future and we would like to leave a green world to children of next generations.
If we don't start to take action alltogether, soon it may be late for our world and us.
For this reason, we choosed this subject, we aimed to create some solution ideas.
We collected many informations and we studied as team.
Now, we would like share our ideas that we produced by teamwork of our team.
How We Developed This Project
We first decided our topic which was carbon footprint and space pollution. Then we specified our problems about these problems, we searched other people’s solutions about these problems. Then everyone in the group expressed their ideas and we discussed about these ideas. At last we defined the common and different parts of these solutions and we shaped the last version of our solution.
How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project
We used all of them effectively. We read and added the important ones to our project.
We needed some info about carbon saturation and methane saturation , "how measure space agencies these datas on the atmosphere?" it was our main question, and then we reached the info of OCO-2 and OCO-3 satellites by the space agency's data.
