Sustainable Systems: Materials Assignment

Prompt:

I would like you to bring in a material or object and create a diagram of it’s journey from raw material, through the manufacturing process, to distribution, and then how you came to purchase it, etc. How far does it travel? Who do you think made it? How did it get to the store where you purchased it? Your object can be a piece of clothing, art material, etc. anything you want. You may want to do some research online, and if you don’t know all of the steps, that is fine, you can guess, and we will talk through it in class.

 

The item that I chose was a hotel towel

And here is the chart that I made for the item through its journey. (was in color originally)
