Document Summary
Additive manufacturing has what characteristics?-produce any 3 dimensional solid shape / 3d printer / made from plastic. Amount of the anthropogenic co2 emissions the oceans have absorbed-0. 33. Attributes of a sustainable community-supports the well being of existing and future residents / is more concerned with development than social justice / has inequitable access to health care / has opportunities for inclusive social interactions. Attributes of tipping points-a critical point in time where everything changes at once from one stable state to another. Based on our understanding of the climate, is there a point at which the addition of more co2 will not cause further warming?-no. Biological vs. technical nutrients-biological: organic materials that, once used, can be disposed of in any natural environment and decompose into the soil - providing food for small life forms. Technical: inorganic or synthetic materials manufactured by humans (plastics and metals) that can be used many times over without any loss in quality.
