So we’re wrapping up our work here in BiSci and with our partnership with Trimatis. We had recently just had an awesome time presenting our whole project with our poster down in Gaige lobby. Our goal for our work with Trimatis was to create a system that would help collect plastic bottles of the type 1 variant as well as plastic scrap from 3D printing project. We had accomplished this by working with two other teams to help collect bottles and spreading the word across campus about our cause. With our efforts, we had collected approximately 150+ bottles just in Gaige building. This is a massive step towards Trimatis’s and our goal in doing our part to help save this planet. We hope that everyone who visited our station learned a few things about 3D printing and now sees that making an effort to help the environment doesn’t just have to be done outside in nature, but it can also be done inside and in different sorts of fields too. We hope to expand our reaches with this project into more buildings across campus and hope you all continue supporting our cause. And with that said, even though this may be our End Game, for now, we will continue to strive for our home here on planet Earth.

I liked that you guys picked up plastic bottles and am amazed that you got 150+ bottles in just the Gaige building.
I thought that you guys had a very interesting presentation. It is really cool that you were able to collect all of the plastic bottles and make use for them. I think that you guys really helped out with the environment and made a positive impact at our school.
