“There are plenty of other fish in the sea,” goes the old cliché. But are there, really? 1,616 species of fish are on the brink of extinction; 989 are endangered and another 627 are critically endangered. Habitat loss and pollution are significant factors in the decline of these species, however, overfishing is spearheading extinction rates. It’s time to reel in reality on one of the biggest threats to our seas inhabitants. The gutting truth is, if they die, we die.
Water scarcity has become an especially urgent problem in Maasailand. Maasailand is one of the major worldwide destinations for wildlife game drives in Africa. In this project, a recyclable car wash system is considered for design in Maasailand, Kenya. Background research was conducted to see the feasibility of the design. Water filtration methods such as coagulation were researched, analyzed and tested to ensure all the customer needs were met. The washing and collection aspects of the car wash were also further explored and designed. This joint project which is part of capstone is to also be implemented into the bigger project known as the Maasai Autotmotive Education Center and in support of the Mara Guide Association (MGA), an organization run by the Masaai people in Kenya.
