Global and Impact of Plastic
We will be using the data to create an awareness campaign on campus of the amount of trash on campus as well as the patterns of types of trash and the locations.
|
We are using an app to geotag litter that we pick up to create a data set of the trash around campus. We take a picture of the trash, then Litterati tags the date, time and location of the trash. Students use hashtags (#) to identify that the trash was at #monroe.
The app is currently only for iphone, but we are using it on the ipads. You can also post for litterati on an android phone by posting the pictures on instagram and using the hashtags. If you are using the app outside of school, please use the hashtag #monroec for the Monroe Community. |
