Here is a video of that event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6B6AP86Zt8

Illegal mining and water quality and availability (collaborative) by Kai Neumann

This is a qualitative model from an iMODELER workshop for a group of scientists from different fields from the University of Cape Coast, Ghana. Feel free to continue the modeling via this collaborative link. Here is the read-only link to the original model: http://www.imodeler.info/ro?key=CIcLFmS12YTHp4U7SkgXR9w  What is the question the model should answer: What can be done in order to mitigate the effects from illigal mining (surface mining) on the quality of water from rivers? What are the system’s bo...

Urban gardening revisited (wonna win FAIRPHONE) by Adam

I have discovered the following article that inspired me to draw a bigger picture on urban gardening - at least qualitatively. http://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/urban-expeditions/austin/caleb-harper-innovation-in-urban-agriculture-important-because-of-climate-change/ Of course, I wonna win the FAIRPHONE (https://www.know-why.net/question/CfsXb3NvriEsmSuhnnuxsSQ)

Reflexion on thorium reactors by Kai Neumann

this is just a first scetch of a cause and effect model ... if you look at the matrix of the factor thorium reactor you will recognize that this model is dominated by balancing feedback loops (...) you may contact me (kai@ilsa.de) to get a copy of the model or even to collaboratively model it with me and others in any way: many insights and happy modeling Kai
