Sustainability Question

Objective: Utilize the Ocean Cleanup’s Plastic Tracker App to study the trajectory and likelihood of plastic reaching the ocean from selected locations around the world.

Instructions:

Software/App: Familiarize yourself with the Ocean Cleanup’s Plastic Tracker App. If you haven’t already, download and install the application.

Locations: For the purpose of this assignment, you will be analyzing the following cities:

Glasgow, UK

Hanoi, Vietnam

New Orleans, Louisiana

1. Cape Town, South Africa

Lima, Peru

1. Data Collection: For each city, input its location into the app and record the following data into one table:

Probability: Note down the likelihood that plastic from this location will reach the ocean.

Trajectory Distance: Record the approximate distance that plastic will travel before reaching its final destination in the ocean.

• Final Location: Document where the plastic will most likely end up in the ocean after traveling from the input location.
• Screenshots: For each location’s data:
• Capture a clear screenshot that shows the city’s name in the map, the probability of plastic reaching the ocean, the trajectory distance, and the final destination.
• Ensure that the relevant data is clearly visible and not obstructed in any way.
