In our second class period of work, we met with our professor and TA to talk about the project perimeters and how we would go about starting the project. Since this is a research intensive project and it is focused outside the US, we may run into some limitations here. The data may be hard to come by for landfills in Europe as well as transporting the trash into Sweden. Another limiting factor is the data from incineration plants within Sweden, but this can be avoided by direct contact with these companies. For the rest of the class period, we mainly researched the project, but we also looked at the proposal more as we were given an extension on the deadline.
We also decided to split up some of the research so we could each focus our entire attention on one small aspect of the project to start.
