Sustainability Question

Module 11 Assignment – Due
11:59 PMObjective: 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:

1. Software/App: Familiarize yourself with the Ocean Cleanup’s Plastic Tracker App. If you haven’t already, download and install the application.
2. Locations: For the purpose of this assignment, you will be analyzing the following cities:
   • Glasgow, UK
   • Hanoi, Vietnam
   • New Orleans, Louisiana
   • Cape Town, South Africa
   • Lima, Peru
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Submission:
   • Compile the recorded data for each city in a well-organized table.
   • Include the screenshots for each city.
   • Provide a brief analysis (one paragraph with 3-4 sentences) comparing the results for the different cities. Consider discussing:
     • Which city has the highest likelihood of plastic reaching the ocean?
     • Which city’s plastic travels the furthest distance?
     • Are there any patterns or similarities in the final destinations of the plastic?
     • Any other observations or insights you might have derived from the data.
