Real-world problems have both historically and currently been addressed through careful problem solving and engineering design technology from solutions generated from a
problem solving process. However, more creative design solutions are often necessary for community based problems that impact enormous amount of users and in some instances
nations or even the world. Often using reversed engineering principles help innovators from repeating design solutions that ultimately overtime have not been effective. By examining existing exemplars, students will design products to generate solutions to both nature made
and human-made disasters that impact societies over several months and years.

What is a carbon footprint?
Why should we offset a carbon
footprint? On each toe, state facts about carbon footprints or state what we can do to
reduce their impact on the earth.
Search “carbon footprint” and fill in your footprint.

Carbon Dioxide A chemical compound composed of one
carbon and two oxygen atoms. It is often referred to by its formula CO2. It is present in the Earth's atmosphere at a low concentration and acts as a greenhouse gas.
Carbon Footprinta measure of the impact on the environment in terms
of the amount of greenhouse gases produced, measured in units of carbon dioxide.
