Status Update - Green Roofs

We have found multiple potential collaboration-partners: 

  1. Student from the ETH: Will hopefully construct a heating lamp and a water dispenser for the advanced green roof.  
  2. Kindergarten teacher: Here we will build the "simple" green roof together with the children.  
  3. Student from Israel: Has the know how and experience to help envision and construct an advanced green roof. Additionally, we will conduct an interview with him, and he will give us constructive feedback to our project. 

Sadly, the student from the ETH, did not meet our demands and was not able to support and guide us which our idea of building our own watering-system for our miniature green roof. Therefore, we had to lose one of our three collaboration partners.

We have set up an appointment with the kindergarten teacher. We will go to the class in the afternoon to conduct our miniature green roof building with the older kindergarten students in the afternoon. There will be approximately 12 students. 

We were able to conduct our interview with the student from Israel. We asked our questions and recorded the interview. Additionally, he gave us feedback to our project and highlighted how important green roofs are. 

Furthermore, we have decorated our miniature green roof last weekend and have plated the seeds for our roof. Surprisingly, they have already started to grow. We also went to a shoe store to ask for some empty shoe-boxes and were able to take 5 pieces. These will be used in the kindergarten. 

In conclusion, we have two collaboration partners for our project.
