Proposal: Model how the different amounts of CO2 emissions made by humans affect the environment and the atmosphere. Model how different trends that are currently happening with global warming and pollution will affect the earth. Programmed in netlogo3D, sliders used for the amount of emissions and number of people, etc. We are trying to answer the question of how much we need to cut back on pollution, or how much pollution the earth could take to still support the people. Have factors like air quality, breathable air, temperature, greenhouse gases etc. This is a problem that is relevant today in politics and climate change is a big debate among many people. Having a general understanding of the topic is important in today's world, and going into more depth is useful too.
