Exhibit title- "Dig in Deeper: Natural Connections"
Life cycle analysis is research that tracks the full life cycle of things. This analysis measures and accounts for all the costs associated with a product. Costs include the product's manuafacturing (including the raw materials and energy used to make the product), packaging, transportation, use, possible re0use or recycling, and complete disposal of the item. Life cycle analysis shows us that the costs of disposing of the things that we use are much highter than previously expected. Check out how long it takes for various items to break down in a landfill and make predictions at this booth!
Group hosting exhibit- VT Service Learning group
The undergraduate students presenting the activity are Virginia Tech Service Learning Students. As part of their classes, students participate in service projects where they donate a portion of their time and write a final report on their experience. Kids' Tech University is excited to work with these students!
