Sustaining Our Planet for Future Generations

There is concern worldwide that environmental issues we face today will have an impact on future generations. Your challenge is to create a way to communicate the importance of environmental responsibility to people of all ages.

Battling of Coastal Eutrophication

Summary

Nutrients pollution have been causing eutrophication in the Philippines, especially in both Manila Bay and in adjacent Laguna de Bay which brings negative impacts to the health of aquatic systems and the health of citizens. This project has been carried out mainly by using C++ coding language; all the information will be stated in this general-purpose programming language, which is to spread the awareness among the society for the conservation and preservation of nature.In conclusion, this project hopes to provide a sustainable modus operandi in the aspect of the natural environment on our planet for future generations.

How I Addressed This Challenge

In this project, I aim to develop a sustainable modus operandi in the aspect of the natural environment on our planet for future generations.


It is important to sustain our planet for future generations.


If successful, it will help to conserve and preserve the beauty of the nature in our Mother Earth.


For it to be working, I would like and hope to spread the awareness and importance of conservation and preservation of the nature in Earth for future generations.


I hope to achieve to the successfulness of the conservation and preservation of the nature, specifically on the issue of the coastal eutrophication.

How I Developed This Project

The importance of conserving and preserving of nature has inspired me to choose this challenge.


My approach to developing this project is by preparing some information regarding the eutrophication to sustain our planet for future generations.


I have used C++ coding language to develop my project, which is a general-purpose programming language. Besides, I have used Microsoft Word to manage the information and data I have researched on the website.


The problems I have encountered is that nobody join my team, and I have to complete this entire challenge on my own; the achievement that I have gained is that I have learnt about how to solve all the challenges that have been faced all by myself, especially the debugging process in the C++ coding part.

How I Used Space Agency Data in This Project

I have researched many information and data related to the coastal eutrophication.


Other than that, I have used the data or illustration obtained from NASA, which is under the earth observatory on the growth of Manila.


From the illustration, it has influenced me deeply in terms of the geographic and the description provided below the illustration, whereby the illustration has shown both the Manilla Bay and Laguna de Bay in the Philippines.
