Environmental Accords

https://law.marquette.edu/sites/default/files/photo/environmental-law_22.jpg
Summary: These are the laws of the land. Literally! To preserve our planet cities, urban areas and most importantly urban villages must follow. The Environmental Accords include things like preservation of natural space, use of local grown foods and water uses cuts. Even we have to consider their importance. So lets get right into how we used these.


S&EP; Conducting Explanations and Designing Solutions:
     The environmental accords are all something to consider when designing an area. During our Urban Village project we were assigned the task of designing a village that also includes these accords. For example in our urban village we will use natural lighting to conserve energy. If we really looked deep enough we could probably get a system to make our pool eco friendly to conserve water. When designing we just had to look beyond the accord by applying it to our village.

XCC: Cause and Effect: As I talked about in my last blog we all have and effect on our environment. Its like the butterfly effect. Lets just say you decide to not throw away some trash this morning. Well that trash can be eaten by a bird. That bird could easily die knocking the food chain unbalanced. Now since that bird is not eating the bugs the bugs can start reproducing more. Then the bugs need room to live and they start eating our crops. Then over a course of a long time we all dont have any food because you decided not to throw your trash away. Just be careful every choice matters. Make wise ones.
