Final Project

       This week in Sustag my group and I worked on our final project. We actually did the physical work this week. During the prior week, our work related to the final project largely consisted of us making plans. Our project is attaching a gutter to the roof of the chicken coop and attaching pipes to allow water to go down to a bucket where it may be used. On Tuesday after school, we went to Home Depot to acquire the necessary supplies needed. The supplies that we purchased were: a gutter, clips to hold the gutter in, mesh and attachments for the gutter to go downward. We used these supplies to build a sustainable water catchment system. The rain tested our system out and it worked well. The water from the rain flowed down to the bucket and all that's left is for us to put a top on the bucket so that when the temperature rises it doesn't overheat. —john
