DEFINE, DISCOVER, DREAM, DELIVER, and DEBRIEF

Define: I have been given the task of finding a creative solution to climate change and I have chosen to find a solution to a factor of climate change which is air pollution.

Discover: In 1948 there was a lethal haze that killed over 40 people and 14,000 people experienced respiratory or cardiovascular problems. After that, scientists started researching about how air pollution can effect health, then, Congress passed the Clean Air Act Amendments which evolved into bigger resolutions towards air pollution such as geothermal energy.

Dream: A couple solutions to air pollution proceed, Solar energy, Electric cars, Recycling, Wind energy and Geothermal energy. Geothermal energy being the most important out of all the examples.

Deliver: I think that the best solution to climate change is geothermal energy, it is proven to be the most effective and renewable out of most other options for renewable energy. Geothermal energy takes hot water heated by the earth’s core that is stored in the earth’s crust that can be seen coming out of geysers and is turned into vapour then goes through a turbine which powers a generator which creates electricity. Geothermal energy is both efficient and clean, there’s no harmful by product and the bi product that is accumulated can be reused and sold.

Debrief: I think that I did well at finding the information necessary, I also think I did well at providing a good presentation, but I think I could’ve been more creative which is something that I lack.

  1. I like that you included a graph in your infographic. Your information and research was presented in a very clear and understandable way. Make sure the links you included in your post are working tho.

  2. Excellent explanation of how you used the solution fluency to address a problem important to you. Great work discovering solutions to your issue and sharing the sources of your research. Great idea to focus on geothermal energy. How do you think we can make more industries consider geothermal solutions to power their machinery?
