Week 9
The group and my contribution to the project:
- this week we received the plexiglass and noticed that they were not cut properly, therefore, the sides are not going to be perfect
- we are going to have to change the placing of the boxes and marie-joelle we'll be putting them together in her garage.
- the cost for LED lights is a lot more than expected so that as well will have to change which is why I thought of using Christmas lights.
- we decided to add balls to hang from the top of the boxes that will almost look like stars.

Week 7
Right after midterm, what I contributed to in our project:
- writing down and restating what exactly will be in every single box
- coming up with a new environmental issue because the ocean 'deoxygenation' resembled too much the 'poor air quality' plexi-box
- came up with the idea of water pollution
