The egg falling

Hi everyone! Today  our are going to explain my project. Our project is called "The egg falling". It consists in throwing an egg throw a high place with some kind of structure that prevents of breaking it. As you know our blog it's about technology and ecology, so we made a eco-structure with reused materials.

We propoused a smart and sustainable solutions. We cut a sponge in half, then we put the egg between the two halves and we closed it with two reused elastic bands. Finally we put it inside four old socks with cereals and corn between them.

This is a sketch of our structure:




Our materials were ecofriendly: The sponge,the socks and the elastic bands were reused. It's important to be conscious about our planet, because we want a good future, and we won't get a future if we keep trowing things in the ocean, or using CO2 to get energy for moving from a point to an other. We have to stop doing things without thinking before.

We did an excel about the costs of our project. This is the money that we spent on this project:










Finally, the egg survived, we are so happy about it. With this project we learnt that simple thing as keeping an egg safe from a falling, can be tricky and complex. We learnt that things that you thing that are mindless, have relation with physics or technologic concepts. We also assimilated that all the things that we make, being tiny or big, have to be eco friendly.

Thank you!!!

- BIOCONSTRUCTION - Finnland

Finnland is making real advances in sustainable architecture. On of them is building with wood, this has to main reasons: -Finnland is full of forests, so they have a lot of wood. -The wood of the houses captures the CO2 from the air, such as trees do. 1 m3 of wood has 1 tone of CO2 aprox. And a Finnish house has 30 tones of CO2 aprox. Example of a finnish wooden house.

- BIOCONSTRUCTION - Countries with sustainable architecture

Our country isn't very conscious about global warming, so they don't think of what is better for the earth before they make a new building, but luckily there are other countries that are leaders in sustainable architecture. -One of them is Norway.  Norway is constructing buildings with less greenhouse gases emissions, with renewable systems of energy... One of them is: The ballet and opera of Norway. This building is created by  Snøhetta,   a group of architects that are famous for constructing sustainable and amazing buildings. -Canada is very conscious about climate change and this is reflected in they buildings. In fact, in Vancouver (a canadiense city) is trying to be "The greenest city 2020" in 2020. An example of one of this buildings in Canada: -Australia: Australia is one of the countries that have been more affected for climate change. So they are constructing mor sustainable buildings such as:  This Council house in Melbourne. Is made...
