Overview:
In this assignment you will evaluate the CO2 equivalent emissions and energy use/production from your personal waste generation. You will learn about the scope, capabilty, and uncertainty of models. You will learn about the different impacts from various waste handling scenarios. And you will practice good graphing skills. (See the lecture slides for more information.)
Your final homework should be turned in as an excel spreadsheet. You should have two separate worksheets. The first will be your ‘Raw’ data from your week of collecting all of your trash, recycling, etc. If you decide to work in a group, the raw data should have waste added for everyone in your group- as if you were a family. The second worksheet should have one CO2 graph, one energy graph, and one text box with paragraphs describing your findings. The worksheet should have the data used for the graph but not a worksheet from the WARM model.
Week prior to due date: Record your waste (trash, recycle, etc) for one week & enter data into excel
You should have kept a log of your personal waste generation for the past week. During recitation, there will be examples of waste materials; you should weigh examples of your waste and enter the data into your excel spreadsheet. An excel spreadsheet with example weights of organic waste is available on Blackboard to aid in estimating your food and organic waste. If the exact trash is not available, you should estimate the weight and type of your trash using the example materials provided in class.
You should use a text box in excel to write two paragraphs summarizing your findings from the WARM model. Your writeup should describe (paragraph 1) why emissions or energy is negative, and comment on the accuracy of the tools and/or your estimates. (e.g. what might be your largest source of error?) Paragraph two should discuss the findings from your improvement scenario. Were the emissions and energy actually better than your current waste? Don’t forget to refer to the principles of ESEM in either of these paragraphs and bold and italicize the sentence that reflects and ESEM principle.
