Rating
0.0 stars

In this investigative assessment, students describe the life cycle of man-made products that include or originate from plastic and other materials and evaluate how they may impact the environment. Students use a basic life cycle assessment – similar to assessments used by process engineers – that allows them to identify and order the different steps in the life cycle of a product. Using their analyses to compare the impacts of different products, students develop ideas to reduce the environmental impact of the production process or the lifecycle of the product.
