I can’t believe this semester is practically over!! I am pretty
excited for the summer, but I am also a bit disappointed for the data I got for
my research. My results are inconclusive, and this makes me a bit upset. The
purpose of my research was to identify a decrease in mass for any of the
plastic strips. Some of the plastic strips had a slightly weight decrease, but
others had a weight INCREASE!! How did that happen?? Right now I don’t know what
to make of my results, but I am still very passionate on the importance of
bioremediation!!! Plastic is everywhere, and we need to do something about it.
I have to sit down, and analyze the ways I could improve my experiment for the
future. I am not giving up!!!
Plastic Waste is a serious problem!! |
