This My Nature Outing project inquires into questions surrounding sustainable design and examines local efforts at the University of Pittburgh. My Nature Outing is sponsored by the University of Pittsburgh's John C. Mascaro Center for Sustainable Engineering and the Office of the Provost's Year of Data and Society.
What is sustainable design? What does it do? How does it work? Why is it important? What should we do next? (Can we improve it or scale it up?)
This is a pollinater garden!
This is a bike cave on Pitt Campus!
Aaa food pantry gives people free food so that they don't have to go out and buy it.
My favorite sustainable design activity is thriftsburgh,it collects clothing that people don't want or are donating to these thrift stores! We could expand this by making mmore of these storess,so people don't have all of their clothes they do not want laying around their house. >

I interviewed Elena. We asked questions and answered them, This discussion was valuable because we talked about nature!
This is a pollinater garden! It helps the bees come together and just to pollinate frrom the flowers, from this phoottto it dddoesssnt look the there are flowers, but there actaully is but on a differnt side.It is important because they pollinaate and make honey!All we need to do is maybe grow more flowers!
It's not only for pitt students it is for everyone.It helps people fix their bikes for free.we should make more of these!
People give you the food that you need or don't have. We should make more of these around Pittsburgh.
