Contributions to the Research Project

1. I presented all of the ideas that my group had discussed during our group's meeting to the class.

2. I contributed to the research of the background information.

3. Upon further research, I discovered that our initial idea of using harvested rainwater for HDB block-washing is already in practice in Singapore. We then had to further brainstorm a new idea, and decided on using harvested rainwater to for non-potable use in industrial areas. 

4. I researched on the best method to harvest rainwater, and concluded that the rooftop rainwater harvesting system is the most effective and cost-saving.
